TABLE OF CONTENTS
This superkaramba theme utilized the python module qstat.py that has bindings
into the qstat application. It should handle all supported game servers that
the qstat application supports. It only displays the top 20 or so players currently.

Files:
README - This file
qstat.py - The importable qstat wrapper module for the qstat application
skQstat.py - The python code for superkaramba callbacks
skQstat.theme - The superkaramba theme file
Directories:
doc - This contains any documentation for the application
images - This contains images used by the theme
pkgs - This contains the packages that you may need to install
+-->qstat-2.6.tar.gz - is the qstat binary application package
+-->qstat-latest.tar.gz - is the qstat python wrapper module for the qstat xml output
screenshots - This contains images of what to expect when running skQstat
For this theme to work, you will have to install the qstat application in the
pkgs/qstat-2.6.tar.gz package. Once that application is configure/make/make install'ed
then the superkaramba theme should be able to report server statistics.
The other package, pkgs/qstat-latest.tar.gz, is the python wrapper. There is
NO need to install this. It is already in the theme directory for it to be accessed.
The reason it is included is for distribution of the source so that anyone can use it
should they want to write their own python code to read qstat output.
Q. How do I change to monitor a different game server?
A. Click on the green button in the upper left corner and follow the dialog instructions.
This has only been tested with Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Enemy Territory.
Please contact me concerning anything that fails like a particular game server. That
way we can add support.
