NAME

   upstart-monitor - Display system and session Upstart events

SYNOPSIS

   upstart-monitor [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

   upstart-monitor  displays  Upstart  system  events  or  Upstart session
   events using either a command-line or graphical interface.

OPTIONS

   -d destination , --destination=destination
          Specify the endpoint  to  connect  to.  Valid  destinations  are
          session-socket, session-bus, system-socket and system-bus.

   --help Show brief usage summary.

   -n , --no-gui
          Run in command-line mode.

   -s , --separator
          Specify alternate field separator to use for command-line output
          (default is a single tab character).

NOTES

   *   By default, upstart-monitor will attempt to start  in  a  graphical
       mode  unless  --no-gui  is  specified.  However, if it is unable to
       display a graphical interface, it will display  a  warning  message
       and automatically revert to the command-line interface.

   *   When  no  command-line  option  (that  affects  the destination) is
       specified, upstart-monitor will attempt to connect to  the  Session
       Init  (destination  session-socket)  and display session events. In
       this mode, it will display both session events and  system  events,
       assuming the upstart-event-bridge(8) is running.

       If  invoked  with  no  arguments  from within a non-Upstart session
       environment it will  attempt  to  connect  to  Upstart  running  as
       process  ID 1 (destination system-bus) and will only display system
       events.
