Kushal,

This goes beyond just being a tutorial. It is a "cookbook". You are using 
real-life examples to introduce Qt. Here are some suggestions for your 
future lessons:

1. A panel that combines meters for cpu/ram/io/net in one screen.
One can experiment with analog and digital meters, graphers, trend plots 
etc.
2. A panel that shows the current cpu resource hogs (top 3 cpu hoggers) 
and possibly try to adjust their "nice" value, drill down to their proc/ 
data and so on.
3. Graphical display that shows the current "virtual memory" map of a 
process. Indicate text, data and bss segments, shared libraries etc. One 
should be able to drill out to individual pages. Data can be sourced 
from /proc/<pid>/maps file.
4. Create GUI front-ends for lsof(1), find(1), locate(1), traceroute(1)
5. Create a nice panel for network interfaces (ifconfig -a), show if they 
are up/down and allow them to be configured/shutdown.

Good work. Keep them coming .. Subbu
