Version 0.5 of procinfo can now be found in
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming or /pub/Linux/system/Misc/ps,
and in tsx-11.mit.edu:/incoming.

What it is:

Procinfo is a small program that gathers some system information from
diverse files under /proc and prints it to the screen. It duplicates
some of the functionality of free(1) and uptime(1). It should work
with any kernel release close to 1.0 or later.


New in version 0.5:

  + The hostname is displayed in the top right corner (as suggested
    by Danny ter Haar). I cut off half of the /proc/version line as
    it was getting far too long in recent kernel versions to fit on
    one line.

  + Times larger than 24 hours are now displayed as `days hh:mm:ss.ss'
    Patch from The Big Cheese <root@delphi.glendon.yorku.ca>.

  + New option `-D' to show totals on memory usage and differences
    on the rest. Patch from Steven Lembark <lembark@wrkhors.la.ca.us>.

  + If your kernel is 1.1.43 or later, you also get the names of who
    is using the irq channels appearing and disappearing as drivers
    grab and release irq's.



Cheers,
Sander
