  Description     : A system monitor and debugger

Frysk is a programmable system monitoring and debugging tool.  It
allows developers and system administrators to monitor running
processes and threads (including creationg and destruction events),
monitor the use of locking primitives, expose deadlocks, gather
data and react to events.  For instance, one may choose a process
to monitor directly from a GUI list; or, frysk may notice a process
crashing or otherwise misbehaving in some user-definable way, and
offer to open a source code window on the process.
