usermon - User Monitor
Copyright 2003-2021 Fabrice Colin <fabrice dot colin at gmail dot com>

This is a plugin for the Xfce panel, version 4.12 or higher.
It displays at all times how many users are currently logged in,
issues a desktop notification when a user logs in and subsequently
when one logs out.

Requirements
============

libxfce4ui-2		>= 4.12.0
libxfce4panel-2.0	>= 4.12.0
libnotify		>= 0.7.0
a session management system (or display manager) that updates utmp

Settings
========

Critical Number of Users sets the threshold starting at which
critical notifications are shown.
Alarm Period (in seconds) defines how often usermon should check
utmp for new users.

Acknowledgements
================

Version 1.4.0 was mostly developed on a PowerBook5,4 running the
excellent Void Linux PPC.

History
=======

The current usermon is a Xfce port of a previous version targeting
Jonas Aaberg's General Applet Interface library [1], developed in
2003 and 2005 and never subsequently published.
