This can be used to determine such things as: + * If a cdrom has a disk inserted + * The temperature of a cpu core + * The remaining power left in a battery + * The current power consumption of various parts + * Monitor in realtime the status of peripheral devices + +Each of the above examples can be performed by using only a single eeze +function, as one of the primary focuses of the library is to reduce the +complexity of managing devices. + +Eeze 1.1 adds more detailed disk detection as well as filesystem mount point manipulation. +Using a combination of udev and mount, it is possible to easily write disk-based mount services +which do not rely on any external processes or libraries aside from Eeze. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +COMPILING AND INSTALLING: + + ./configure + make +(as root unless you are installing in your users directories): + make install + |
