## NAME

## SYNOPSIS

**wmfsm** \[**--normal, -n**  \]  \[**--fire, -f** \]  \[**--blink, -b** \]  \[**--noblink** \]  \[**-display** \]  \[**-d, --delay** \]  \[**-h, --help** \]

## DESCRIPTION

**wmfsm** is a WindowMaker dock application that shows the amount of disk space available on mounted file systems with colored bars.

## OPTIONS

This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (\`-').  A summary of options is included below.

- **-h**, **--help**

  Show summary of options.

- **-v**, **--version**

  Show version of program.

- **-n**, **--normal**

  Show the entire bars in the same color.

- **-f**, **--fire**

  Render the bars as gradients.  You may switch between the normal and fire modes by mouse clicks anywhere on wmfsm.

- **-b**, **--blink**

  Blink the bars if the filesystem is 95% full.

- **--noblink**

  Do not blink if the filesystem is 95% full.

- **-display**

  Draw on the specified display.

- **-d**, **--delay**

  Wait the specified number of milliseconds to redraw the window.

- **-a**, **--appearance**

  Select an appearance file.  Note that these files may be found in the wmfsm data directory, likely /usr/local/share/wmfsm or /usr/share/wmfsm.

## FILES

You may exclude filesystems from being show by wmfsm by listing them in the ~/.wmfsmrc file.  It should have as its first line either \[include\] or \[exclude\]. The next lines are filesystems that are either explicitly included or excluded respectively.

Note: the format of the  ~/.wmfsmrc file is very strict. Make sure there are no whitespaces at the beginning or at the end of lines. No comments (#) are allowed. Here is an example:

\[exclude\]\
 /proc\
 /dev/pts\
 /floppy\
 /cdrom
