Information
This is a little program that monitors network devices
and shows
a tray icon for every device it found.
I wrote this program just for my convenience, because
I didn't find any such tool that wasn't a part of some other
application.
I use Openbox and Fbpanel and wanted to see a state of network devices.
In the moment it supports only Linux. It was in plans to add a support for some
other OS like *BSD and Solaris, but I did not yet find a time.
You may mail me if you need it and I will try to find a time to add a support for other OS.
Download
Download neticons
Build
In order to build it you need just GTK+ 2.x library
installed on your system. It seems at least GTK+ 2.4.
Edit Makefile and correct paths in it for your needs.
Then execute:
make
make install
(execute "make install" as root)
Using
To run neticons in background use: neticons &
You can supply one argument to the program: interval of milliseconds of
refreshing the state of icons. By default 1000 is used, i.e. a state update
will be performed every second.
Example: neticons 1000 &
Note
Neticons uses icons from Lxpanel project.
I hope it is legal. If not, please mail me and I will fix it.
