psmon - Summary

This group is not part of the GNU Project.

'psmon' is a process monitoring utility with customizable email
notification facilities. It may run as a stand-alone program or a
background daemon.

It is implemented as a Python script and rellies only on some usual
*NIX command line tools such as 'ps' and 'grep'.

It should work fine with python 2.4, 2.5, or 2.6 on any OS with a
POSIX compliant version of 'ps' and GNU 'grep' (I use it everyday
on several different environments - GNU/Linux, Solaris,
OpenSolaris, and FreeBSD - with Python 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6).

The user defines a set of running processes (pid, name, command
line args, etc.) to be monitorized (possibly with some filters)
and some action to take when a process is matched. Limitations on
maximum memory usage, time, etc. may be imposed.

The report may be sent to stdout, some file, or emailed.
