NAME
     saidar - a	curses-based tool for viewing system statistics

SYNOPSIS
     saidar [-d	delay] [-c] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
     saidar is a curses-based tool for viewing the system statis-
     tics  available through libstatgrab. Statistics include CPU,
     processes,	load, memory, swap, network I/O,  disk	I/O,  and
     file system information.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported.

     -d	DELAY
	  Wait DELAY seconds between updates (default 3)

     -c	  Enables coloured output

     -v	  Prints the version number

     -h	  Display help and exits

COLOURED OUTPUT
     When the -c option	is used	saidar uses  colours  to  display
     the data. Each area has a different colour	to distinguish it
     from the nearby fields. Bold and reverse video  effects  are
     used to emphasis fields where necessary.

     The load average figures are displayed in bold when  they're
     notably  (greater	that  1)  different  to	 each other. This
     purely shows that a change	in the load is occuring.

     When CPU usage goes over 60% it will be displayed	in  bold.
     At	 90% the field is displayed using reverse video. Likewise
     for memory, swap and disk	usage  at  75%	and  90%.  Zombie
     processes are also	highlighted.

     Other values (paging, disk	I/O  and  network  I/O)	 are  not
     highlighted  due  to the nature of	the values; it's not easy
     to	determine what thresholds are significant.
