CPU Monitor is a really simple CPU monitoring tool, intended to be executed as a widget in the tooltray.
It displays the current CPU utilization in a graph format.

To use

Simply open the cart, resize the window as you please and drag it in the tooltray.
If you want the app to be opened automatically at boot, remember to save the cart to disk.

Settings

To customize the app appareance and behavior, simply click on the settings icon on the top-left corner of the window, edit the Settings pod and save.

Settings are:

  • Window width and height
  • Seconds between graph updates
  • Background color
  • Outer box and text color
  • Graph line color

WARNING!!!
While the window size is exposed in the Settings pod, the cart manages it automatically and there's no need to edit it manually.

For the next release

I don't really like that you need to edit the pod to change the settings. It is a temporary solution. I will add an actual UI for editing the settings in the next release.
