  Description     : Displays network speed and usage

qnetload displays the instant speed, a graph with the speed in recent
minutes and network usage (how many MB have been used since running
qnetload?).

qnetload has a very similar interface to xnetload which was removed from
Debian in 2010 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=595195). When xnetload was in Debian I submitted tried to fix some problems (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=678061) then realised that very sadly it wasn't in Debian anymore.

I haven't found any alternative with the same interface, window manager
independent as xnetload/qnetload.

qnetload autodetects relevant interfaces, clicking the interface name
changes it and saves the interface for the next run (e.g. qnetload will
use the latest used interface, handy for interface names like wlp7s0 or
enp6s0)

I've found it very helpful when using dodgy connections and wanting some
sense of speed during some operations, checking the maximum speed of
connections and also very important nowadays with mobile connections
paying by GB a way to know how much MB the user has used in one session
to have an overall idea.
