NAME
     wmtempmon - Temperature Sensor Monitor wmdockapp

SYNOPSIS
     wmtempmon [-hv] [-t temperature sensor] [-s scrolling] [-display display]

DESCRIPTION
     wmtempmon is a wmdockapp which displays the temperature monitored by a
     temperature sensor.  In the title you can see the temperature sensor
     name.  In the main area you can see the current temperature measured by
     the monitored sensor.  If the temperature stays below 49 degrees the
     color is blue.  If the temperature raises above 49 degrees the color
     changes to orange.  If the temperature raises above 74 egress the color
     changes to red.

     If no specific temperature sensor will be selected at startup, wmtempmon
     scans all the hardware sensors until a temperature sensor is found, and
     uses that.  Multiple instances of wmtempmon can be started to monitor
     different temperature sensors.

OPTIONS
     -h      Prints a short listing of the wmtempmon options.

     -v      Shows version.

     -t temperature sensor
             Select which temperature sensor to use.

     -s scrolling
             Temperature sensor name scrolling.  If a temperature sensor name
             is too long to be displayed in the wmdockapp window, it will be
             scrolled by default.  The scrolling types are:

             -s 0          Disable scrolling.  Long temperature sensor names
                           will be cut down to 8 characters.
             -s 1          LCD scrolling (default).  The temperature sensor
                           name moves from the left to the right separated by
                           a space.
             -s 2          Bounce scrolling.  The temperature sensor name
                           moves from the left to the right, and bounces back
                           from the right to the left.
             -s 3          Fade scrolling.  The temperature sensor name moves
                           from the left to the right, fading out and begins
                           again.

     -display display
             Set display.

HISTORY
     First version of wmtempmon appeared in 2025.

EXAMPLES
     Monitor the bcmtmon0 temperature sensor:

           $ wmtempmon -t bcmtmon0

     Monitor the first temperature sensor found, and bounce scroll it's name:
           $ wmtempmon -s 2

CAVEATS
     wmtempmon is only designed to work with the OpenBSD sensor framework.
     Using it on other operating systems will require porting to the specific
     sensor framework.
