.PP
On mouse over the cursor will disappear and be replaced by a burning spot
at that location. After two seconds symbols will be burnt to represent what
is being monitored. For cpu, a short solid bar represents average load or a
line of dots representing the current cpu number on SMP systems. For the
memory, a grid of dots is used to signify a memory array. For the network, a
line of marching dots is like data passing through a cable. For file values,
a spinning disk platter is shown.
