NAME
       asfsm - the AfterStep file system monitor

SYNOPSIS
       asfsm [-bg] [-fg] [-bp] [-z] [-pbg] [-pfg] [-pbp] [-i]

DESCRIPTION
       The  asfsm  application  is  a file system monitor for the
       AfterStep window manager.  It displays "raised" horizontal
       bars   representing  the  percent  used  of  each  mounted
       filesystem. Filesystems of zero  initial  block  size  are
       represented  as  "lowered"  horizontal  bars that span the
       entire window if the -showzero option is  used,  otherwise
       they  are  not  shown at all.  asfsm checks the filesystem
       usage on an interval.  Filesystems mounted between  inter-
       vals  will  appear after the next scan.  Left clicking the
       mouse in a bar pops up a window displaying detailed infor-
       mation about the filesystem that the bar represents.  Left
       clicking the mouse in the border or anywhere not  occupied
       by  a  bar  pops up a window which displays the filesystem
       names and mount directories for each filesystem  available
       for mount (excluding NFS filesystems on sun machines).  An
       icon  surrounded  by  a  colored  rectangle  displays  the
       filesystem  type  and  status.  A red rectangle denotes an
       unmounted filesystem, a green denotes a mounted filesystem
       and a yellow rectangle denotes a filesystem which users do
       not have permission to mount or unmount.  A zip disk image
       is displayed for all filesystems whose device name contain
       "zip",  a Compact Disc is displayed  for  all  filesystems
       whose type is "RCKRDG", "ISO9660", "iso9660", or "hsfs", a
       floppy image is displayed for all filesystems whose device
       name  contains  "fd",  a dos floppy image is displayed for
       all floppies whose device type is "DOS" or "msdos", a  dos
       hard  disk  image  is displayed for all non-floppies whose
       device type is "DOS" or "msdod",  a  networking  image  is
       displayed  for all nfs filesystems (whose filesystem names
       have a":" in them) and an image of a  hard  drive  platter
       with a devil on it is displayed for everything else.  Left
       clicking inside the colored rectangle  toggles  the  mount
       status of the filesystem.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
       -showzero
              Shows zero sized filesystems such as /proc.

       -bg

       -fg
              Changes foreground color of the main window.

       -bp
              Changes  background  pixmap of the main window. Can
              also be None which lets the background  color  show
              through.

       -z
              Changes  foreground  color  for filesystems of zero
              initial block size.

       -pbg
              Changes background color of the popup window.

       -pfg
              Changes foreground color of the popup window.

       -pbd
              Changes border color of the popup window.

       -pbp
              Changes background pixmap of the popup window.  Can
              also  be  None which lets the background color show
              through, Transparent which makes it transparent, or
              Translucent which makes it translucent.

       -i
              Changes  the  interval  of  scan  in  seconds.  The
              default is every 5 seconds.

INVOCATION
       asfsm can be called from one of many ways.  The most  com-
       mon invocation is the command line:

            [user@host] ~% asfsm -b green -f blue -i 3 -pbp Translucent&

       Another way to call asfsm is from the window manager:

            *Wharf - - MaxSwallow "asfsm" asfsm -b green -f blue -i 3 -pbp Translucent&

       This   line,   when   placed   in   the   wharf   file  in
       ~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep will cause asfsm a  button  on
       the  Wharf  (1)  button bar under the afterstep (1) window
       manager.
