BeanMon

A simple Linux system monitor that displays CPU usage, memory info, and disk space in a small X11 window.

I recommend using it with fvwm3 and add the following styling in your fvwm3 config file

# == Window decors and overrides ==
Style *            Title, Handles, !MWMFunctions, NoDecorHint, StickyIcon
Style *            DepressableBorder 
Style "FvwmPager"  NoTitle, Icon, Sticky, WindowListSkip, Handles, BorderWidth 7
...some more styling here....
Style "BeanMon"     NoTitle, Sticky, WindowListSkip, BorderWidth 7

Build

Make sure you have gcc and the X11 development libraries installed (e.g. libx11-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).

make

Run

./BeanMon
