I'm the maintainer of the xperfmon++ port for FreeBSD. The original
author is to busy to do any improvements on the prog. However it was
really hard work to write the system dependent part new for FreeBSD and
to fix some bugs concerning the wrong resizing behavior under X11.
If you want to add another display you have to edit a lot of files
and structures so it's not really easy, but I'm sure it's possible. Why
do you need max/min values for the graphs? They are autoscaling!
Regards
Lars
