I wouldn't be surprised if someone is already working on this. * xosview, a graphical performance meter: http://lore.ece.utexas.edu/~bgrayson/xosview.html -- This one will be a bit tougher. It was written for Linux and ported to NetBSD; my 30 seconds of hacking on it didn't work. The guy needs a FreeBSD account to port it if'n one of our people don't want to do the work. (I may offer him one.) Happy trails, Brian
