[Xymon] [Newbie] Smaller, lighter Xymon based program?

[James]

Thanks, Martin! I think you got my point.
My idea is just to keep Xymon's ping and web-page display function, like a
"little Xymon" program
which is based on Xymon but only have very limited functionality.

Maybe I can use the layout of how Xymon display the result and strip down
the options I don't need?
Or, if possible, could you please give me some hint about how to create my
own HTML provider?

Betsy,
Thanks for your advise, I learned that from one of my coding class, we were
given the full source code
of a working program, and our instructor asked us to modify it to meet his
requirement. (He purposely
did this just want to let us know to write our own code is smarter to
copy/modify someone's code)
But this time is different, we were approved to use any open source program
and modify it to meet
our need. Maybe I can do as Martin said: take the part which I am needed,
and make it a smaller program.
Thanks for the suggestion, I really appreciate time you've spent.

James
