✨ fai-monitor-gui ✨

okay bestie, welcome to fai-monitor-gui(1) — it's a General Commands Manual page and it's lowkey iconic 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

fai-monitor-gui — the fai monitor daemon, but make it graphical 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

fai-monitor-gui FILE

that's it. one argument. she's simple like that 😌

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the vibe: fai-monitor-gui reads fai-monitor(8) messages from FILE and then — and this is the main character moment — it builds a graphical table using PerlTk 🫶

like, it's literally taking those monitor messages and turning them into a whole aesthetic visual table. no cap.

and ngl, the way you'd normally call it is this:

fai-monitor | fai-monitor-gui -

yep, pipe it straight in and pass - as FILE. it's giving "just plug the hose in and watch the magic happen" 💖

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -s — use smaller icons so you can fit more machines listed inside a single window. tiny icons, big energy, maximum machine real estate 🔥

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
