Moniker is a simple command-line Perl script that was born at motherofperl.com. It's being actively developed there by me, Jonathan Eisenzopf . It is intended to be simple to install and use, but is not intended to be a full-featured replacement for more advanced monitoring tools.

DOWNLOAD

The latest version is 0.2. The source can be downloaded from http://www.motherofperl.com/scripts/moniker/
