[ANNOUNCE] nload (latest) ...
 
Hi all,

Here is my first attempt to package the latest version of nload :

nload :

nload monitors network traffic and bandwidth usage.

Overview :

nload is a console application which monitors network traffic and bandwidth usage in real time. It visualizes the in- and outgoing traffic using two graphs and provides additional info like total amount of transfered data and min/max network usage.

Interesting but i prefer the ifstatus interface ...

Anyway, running "nload -t 200 -i 1024 -o 128 -U M"
the shell hangs after this error:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::ios_base::failure'
what(): basic_ios::clear
Aborted
