Gasp. Choke. Even net stuff is too cruddy for me. The line-eater dies...

Y'know what I think would be a neat (and useful) proram for the PC?
The equivalent of a minicomputer CTL-T. I mean, I like to know what
my computer is doing. CTL-T is great when the system load is high on
the host, but there have also been times when I've wondered what my
poor compaq deskpro is up to... Anyone want to write such a beast?
How 'bout figgerin' out a neat estimate of load average? This could
be cool! Just a thought... --Erik
