...executes any command line and compares the result against a perl expression. A very fast way to get any desired check running...
Writing a plugin is sometimes boring and for 90% the same procedure: create a structure to deal with the command line options, perform an operation and report the results. The only thing changing is the command to be executed to gather data.

This plugin will let you concentrate on the bare minimum: define a command (chain) to gather data and specify some thresholds to interprete this data. Thats all. The rest is to be done by the plugin.
