Hot-babe is a small graphical utility which displays the system activity in a very special way. When the CPU is idle, it displays a dressed girl, and when the activity goes up, as the temperature increases, the girl begins to undress, to finish totally naked when the system activity reaches 100%. Of course, if you can be shocked by nudity, don't use it!
-h, --help display a small help message and exit.
-t, --threshold n ensure that only the first picture (totally
dressed girl) as long as the system activity is below n%.
-d, --delay n update the display every n milliseconds.
-i, --incremental ponder every sample with time, the result is
a somewhat smoother animation, and the cpu has to be 100% for a long time before
the girl will be totally naked, and the cpu has to be at 0% for a long time
for the girl to dress totally.
-N, --noNice With this option, the reniced processes aren't counted. This is usefull if you use seti@home or distributed.net, which always eat almost all the CPU.
-n, --nice n If you specify this option, hot-babe will renice itself to n.--dir directory This let you choose a directory to read the images from.In order to compile and install hot-babe, you will need gdk-2.0
and gdk-pixbuf-2.0 librairies (with the associated devel packages).
If you have gtk-2.0, you should have gdk-2.0 and gdk-pixbuf-2.0 installed.
Then simply untar the package and type make at the prompt.
Then, a su -c "make install" will place this in your PATH.
Yes, there are bugs in Hot-Babe. I know about some of them, but please, if you find one, contact me.
