- --------
-
- INFORMER is a program to survey your system resource's and the amount of
- free memory while running Windows. It has an alert function to warn you,
- if the free resources or the amount of free memory falls under a certain
- value. You can set this values from 1% up to 99% for the system resources
- amd from 1KiloByte up to 16MegaByte for the memory. INFORMER displays the
- free GDI and USER heap size, the free memory size and the number of tasks
- running in his window title. You can change the update rate from 2ms up to
- 60000ms ( = 1 minute). If you enter incorrect values, the default values
- will be set ( Memory alert 64 KiloByte. Resource alert 20%. Update Rate
- 1000 ms).
-
- Other functions are :
-
- - exit and restart Windows functions
- - start SYSEDIT
- - activate screensaver ( Windows 3.1 with installed screensaver required !)
