    Every 5 seconds or so another block modified copy of 'ifconfig eth0', will come out. RX packets for example is nolonger an absolute counter, it's a delta.. of this value from the previous value. By appending '--dt' each delta will be divide by time.

    Another example :

    Show me the file /proc/interupts every 3.2 seconds or so and tell me the rates of interupts we are watching. 

     

# /tmp/deltizer  --file '/proc/interrupts' --dt --looptime 3.2
