Re: ITP: nspeed -- Prints the currently incoming and outgoing traffic in kb/s of a NIC on the console, no more, no less
You are right.
Currently it measures the network traffic over the period of 1 (one)
second. See the TODO.Debian to learn that I plan to make it adjustable
and more configurable ...

>> nseepd is a shell script which prints the kb/s which are currently
beeing received and transmitted by a NIC in a direct way only using
simple shell commands. No superuser rights required. All other tools I
found displayed continuous the incoming / outgoing rate or many other
thins. All I needed was a short information of how much is going in and
out at the moment, displayed once.

adjust it? Maybe this is not as important for the description, but
should be mentioned in the package :)
