{{tag>software C}} ====== ZeST ====== ZeST is a dinky curses based disk stressing utility. It's not very good. {{ :zest-screenshot.png?direct |}} ====== Download ====== {{:zest-0.1b.tar.bz2|}} ====== Readme ======
\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ZeST ///////////// This is a pretty straight forward program for those experienced with the command line and text-based interfaces. \\\\\\\\\\\\\ Compiling & Installing ///////////// You have GCC right? Well you should. You should also have curses. Actually, any C compiler on a POSIX system should work just fine. I didn't code anything too weird into ZeST thus making it portable between all POSIX compatibile systems (except cygwin, damnit). To compile and install all you have to do is make make install Actually, that's not true. All you have to do to compile and install is run make install. There is a man page that is included and added to your man pages when you install. Aren't I thoughtful? \\\\\\\\\\\\\ Uninstalling ///////////// This might blow your mind, but there it goes. In the directory where you unpacked the tar ball. Running make uninstall will remove ZeST from your system. I'll leave you to collect the remnants of your deflagrated mind. \\\\\\\\\\\\\ Running ///////////// Really not all that much to running. Arrow keys (up and down) scroll through the process on the screen if you ran more processes than you have screen lines. Page Up and Page Down jump 15 lines rather than one. Press Q to prompt for quitting. \\\\\\\\\\\\\ Bugs and Requests ///////////// I'm sure there are many. I know of a few already actually.
