Another release for y'all to try:
http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pdw/iftop/download/iftop-0.15pre2.tar.gz
I've added config file support. The code for this was inspired (in the
"cp config.{c,h} ~/cvs/iftop" sense of the word) by code from tpop3d.
To make things easy, this stuff is totally undocumented, except for me
saying:
cat > ~/.iftoprc
interface: eth0
dns-resolution: yes
use-bytes: no
log-scale: yes
max-bandwidth: 10M
filter-code: not port 53
^D
cfgfile.c may give further clues. I'll be documenting this properly for
the 0.15 release and at some point I'll add the ability to dump the
current configuration to a config file.
For your ease and convenience I have changed the letters bound to
various options. Actually, this was an attempt at getting consistency
between command-line options and run-time buttons.
Please let me know if it doesn't work.

Guess what? A new release. 0.15pre1, no less. It's here:
http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pdw/iftop/download/iftop-0.15pre1.tar.gz
It does this:
0.15
* Added linear bar scales (default) ("L")
* Added fixed upper limit for bandwidth
* Choose which average bars display ("B")
* Fixed the search for libpcap in the configure script

Hi,
I use iftop every day to monitor the network traffic at the small
university I admin. It's a very useful tool; thanks for all your
efforts.
I have a very minor feature request: when one has source or dest host
hidden, it would be useful to indicate somewhere the number of
connections that are being amalgamated, perhaps in parens. Something
like this:
10.0.1.50 => * (14) 466Kb 420Kb 512Kb
<= 280Kb 430Kb 415Kb
So I can see at a glance that the bandwidth used by 10.0.1.50 is
distributed over 14 separate sessions.
Thanks again for iftop,
Jason.
P.S. I'm not subscribed to the list so please copy me on replies.
