WMsensors.pl is a small perl-program which monitors the temperature and voltages of CPU and motherboard and also shows the Fan-speed.

Runs as a dock app for Window Maker.

Needs no config-file, but a proper configured installation of lm_sensors and uses the Wharf::JDockApp modul from the CPAN.

Requirements:
You need a proper configured installation of lmsensors.
The output of the command "sensors" should contain lines like this one.

CPU core: +1.87 V (min = +1.98 V, max = +2.49 V) ALARM
+2.5V: +0.36 V (min = +2.24 V, max = +2.74 V) ALARM
I/O: +3.40 V (min = +2.95 V, max = +3.62 V)
+5V: +4.89 V (min = +4.47 V, max = +5.49 V)
+12V: +12.04 V (min = +10.79 V, max = +13.18 V)
CPU Fan: 0 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)
P/S Fan: 0 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)
SYS Temp: +34.4C (limit = +45C, hysteresis = +40C)
CPU Temp: +40.3C (limit = +60C, hysteresis = +55C)
SBr Temp: +24.8C (limit = +65C, hysteresis = +60C)

INSTALLATION

First step:
Be sure you have installed the Perlmodule "Wharf::JDockApp" from the CPAN.
If you didn't have this Perlmodule type on the shell:
$ perl -MCPAN -e 'install Wharf::JDockApp'
(This will install the needed Perl-module)

Second step:
$ cp wmsensors.pl /usr/local/bin

Third step:
Run wmsensors.pl
$ wmsensors.pl or
$ wmsensors.pl --help
