Gkrellm memory output

It doesn't exist. I can't gkrellm to show me my memory usage. It's one of the most important stats I want to know at times; it helps me confirm suspecions I get from misbehaving apps. . . I have $t - $f free there but it doesn't do anything as far as I can tell. How am I supposed to edit it? Thanks.

The memory chart actaully shows swap usage, not how much memory is used. The memory is shown on the meter below the chart. BTW, swap usage is usally more important than memory usage, in the sense that unless you see that swap is being used, your memory usage is OK (it does not make much sense to have unused memory).

if you want it to display the usage type %u for amount in MiB or $U for percentage. and middle mouse click where it says mem on the bar
