Hi Joey, hi developers, although my nspeed is a pure shell script, it was not hard to implement the feature into "ifdata" of the moreutils package.
Under http://nforcer.de/debian/ifdata-patch/ you find the new ifdata.c and the ifdata.diff to see what I've changed. Make sure you have some traffic and run ifdata -bips NIC (bips=bytes incoming per second) or ifdata -bops NIC (bops=bytes outgoing per second). Have fun and mention me :) Regards, André. > André Appel wrote: >> nseepd is a shell script which prints the kb/s which are currently >> beeing received and transmitted by a NIC in a direct way only using >> simple shell commands.
