Nagios development moving forward

Recommendation:

Check_swap should be refactored to a get_swap function, OS-dependent, and
then a comparison process, OS-independent. :-)

I'm contemplating writing a Mac OS X check_swap, as there does not seem to
be one, and not looking forward to parsing "top -n 1 -S ..." output...

But I'd be a whole lot more comfy with it if I just had to return a BIGINT
instead of duplicating the logic of the test.

'Course, I don't really know what I'm talking about; I'm a nagios "victim"
for a month of a setup that blasts the whole IT department for every
notification, and haven't actually done anything useful to fix that yet...
