Yeah, do so please. :) As this script does not depend on anything.
And name the output something like "swap amount written". Or make it a percentage value (even bettter :)).

I have changed the disk part to get the current swap partition.
Code:
disk=$(cat /proc/swaps | awk '/dev/ {print $1}' | cut -d "/" -f 3)
This outputs the current partition without the "/dev/" part "mmcblk1p2" and fits it perfect.

But where do I get the total number of bytes to get a percentage?
A percentage will be easier to work off as this doesn't limit you to a particular swap size.

OK.

What about:
Code:
awk '{if ($1=="'"/dev/$disk"'") print $3}' /proc/swaps
in your notation.

P.S.: as I have more than one swap online (I know I know), I needed to get the one out of them, You seem to have only one online at a time.
Sorry for delay, had a batt shutdown.

OK. Sorry I got you now. D'oh

cat /proc/swaps get the bytes from there.

Updated to Version 0.0.4

Changes / QR code / Download in OP

This update now makes Flopswap do what I intended.
After some fun with ash and some help from others here, I have now made Flopswap able to monitor Swap defragmentation.

This update now makes Flopswap have all the functionally of Ereswap with the added benifits of:-

*Being optified and not installing files in /sbin and /root that don't get removed on uninstallation.

*Not modifing rcs-late at all (you may wish to return your rcs-late to it's pre-ereswap form).

*Not depending on anything, like busybox-power or iostat for example.

*GUI

While not looking like much of an update there have been a fair few changes in the code and scripts.
I have been testing it on two devices for the last week to make sure it stable and functional.

Happy Swapping.

Thanks for this useful tool
What about integrating compcache ?

I don't use it myself.
To benefit from compcache you need to modify VM settings to swap more. Also using ramz will reduce battery life, due to compressing and uncompressing.

I personally don't see much benefit, compared with thumb for example, so will leave compcache to the "swapset"application.

Would you try to upload it to the repos? At least the dput method is still working.

I would love to put it in the repos.
I have been trying scp everyday for the last couple of weeks.

Re: [Announce][Fremantle] FlopSwap - Swap GUI Management
 
Intriguing...have to check this out later. Been away from my Maemo hacking for far too long...hence the lack of updates to swapset ;)

...incidentally, has any effort been made by those versed in kernel-power to fix the fragmentation problem at source i.e. in the kernel?
