This is a Debian prepackaged version of mon.  It was put together by
Roderick Schertler <roderick@argon.org> with sources obtained from
<URL:ftp://consult.ml.org/pub/mon/>.

The package contains these modifications to the distributed software:

    - Change the top of the library directory from /usr/mon to /usr/lib/mon.
    - Changes to mon:
	- Support a pid file.
	- Treat SIGINT like SIGTERM (for interactive debugging).
	- Allow a `hostgroup' line in mon.cf which doesn't have any host
	  names (useful for putting each host name on a line by itself).
      	- Add `d' (meaning `days') to the list of suffixes accepted by
      	  the interval and alertevery keywords.
    	- Squelch extra blank line output by alerthist and failurehist
    	  commands if there are no corresponding history entries.
	- Bug fix:  fork() returns undef, not -1, on error.
	- Set umask 022, not 0.
    - Changes to mon.cgi:
    	- Set -T mode.
	- Allow all local info fields to be blank, and set them that way
	  by default.
	- Use the same default mon host as the other interfaces.
	- Use $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} as the default $url.
	- Don't hardcode the path to mon, assume it is in the path.
	- Vet the name passed to the `list group' command.  The old code
	  would allow remote users to run arbitrary local commands.
    - Changes to opstatus.cgi:
    	- Set -T mode.
	- Correct port, was 32768 should be 32777.
	- Add missing Content-Type to html_die().
    - In monstatus correct the my() line in populate_group(), and add
      missing $group initialization.
    - Change the skymon files to use the paths the files will have in
      the installed package.
    - Tweak typesetting in the mon.1 and moncmd.1 man pages.
