NAME
     wmtempmon - Temperature Sensor Monitor wmdockapp

SYNOPSIS
     wmtempmon [-hv] [-t temp_device] [-n temp_device_sensor_num]
               [-s scrolling] [-display display]

DESCRIPTION
     wmtempmon is a wmdockapp which displays the temperature monitored by a
     temperature device.  In the title you can see the temperature device
     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 degrees the color
     changes to red.

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

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

     -v      Shows version.

     -t temp_device
             Select which temperature device to use.

     -n temp_device_sensor_num
             Select which temperature device sensor to use.

     -s scrolling
             Temperature device name scrolling.  If a temperature device 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 device names
                           will be cut down to 8 characters.
             -s 1          LCD scrolling (default).  The temperature device
                           name moves from the left to the right separated by
                           a space.
             -s 2          Bounce scrolling.  The temperature device name
                           moves from the left to the right, and bounces back
                           from the right to the left.
             -s 3          Fade scrolling.  The temperature device 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 device:

           $ wmtempmon -t bcmtmon0

     Monitor the first temperature device found, and bounce scroll it's name:

           $ wmtempmon -s 2

     Monitor the qctsens0 temperature device sensor number 7 (qctsens0.temp7):

           $ wmtempmon -t qctsens0 -n 7

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.
