I'd suggest a bit of Documentation reading.. if u plod a bit through the
lmsensor code, u'd get a clear idea.. esp check out the prog directory.

http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Documentation says it much clearer..Read
this and ofcourse the much updated and extremely informative
kernel/Documentation/ files.. and ofcourse finally source.. ;)
At the risk of being a email police, email ettiquette: some hard learn
lessons: dont top post, and please do try NOT to post in HTML.. kinda
messes some of the mail clients...

Thanks and Regards,
