I just replaced the older LMT screenshots that were on sourceforge with a
few new ones.  The filesystem view looks largely the same as it did in the
older versions (although now there is also on OSS panel in addition to the
OST panel).

There are also now plot windows (that currently only work properly for
OSTs and routers).  These can plot history or if you want it can plot
real-time data as well.
