.SH NAME
knetload \- a network meter for Kicker
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B knetload
.RI "[ " generic-options " ]"
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBKNetLoad\fP is a small program for Kicker (the KDE panel).  It
shows a recent history of network usage in the form of two
configurable diagrams in the system tray, one for incoming and one
for outgoing data.
These diagrams have settings for colors and various different styles.
.PP
Left click on a diagram to bring up a small information box which
will show the exact input and output rates in text form as well as
the total amount incoming and outgoing data.
.PP
Note that before KNetLoad can be useful you must select which
network device it should monitor and select an appropriate scaling
value that reflects the speed of this network device.
.PP
KNetLoad can monitor almost any network device; if your device is
not in the predefined list of devices (such as eth0, ppp0 and
ippp0) then you can type in your own device.
.SH OPTIONS
For a full summary of options, run \fIknetload \-\-help\fP.
.SH SEE ALSO
Full user documentation is available through the KDE Help Centre.
You can also enter the URL
\fIhelp:/knetload/\fP
directly into konqueror or you can run
`\fIkhelpcenter help:/knetload/\fP'
from the command-line.
