gping(utils)                     User Commands                    gping(utils)

NAME
       gping - ping(1), but with a graph

SYNOPSIS
       gping OPTIONS [HOSTS]

       gping ccc.de

       gping -s -b 20 ccc.de

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the gping commmand.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       gping is essentially ping(1), but with a TUI graph.

OPTIONS
       --cmd  Graph the execution time for a list of commands rather than
              pinging hosts

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       -V, --version
              Print version information

       -n, --watch-interval <WATCH_INTERVAL>
              Watch interval seconds (provide partial seconds like `0.5').
              Default for ping is 0.2, default for cmd is 0.5.

       -b, --buffer <BUFFER>
              Determines the number of seconds to display in the graph.

       -c, -color <color>
              Assign color to a graph entry.  This option can be defined more
              than once as a comma separated string, and the order which the
              colors are provided will be matched against the hosts or
              commands passed to gping.  Hexadecimal RGB color codes are
              accepted in the form of `#RRGGBB' or the following color names:
              `black', `red', `green', `yellow', `blue', `magenta',`cyan',
              `gray', `dark-gray', `light-red', `light-green', `light-yellow',
