- Hello, and Welcome to LoadMon!
-
- LoadMon is a prettified system monitor. It basically shows the load on your
- CPU and memory over time. I've tried to make this thing take up as little
- time as possible, but Windows is fairly slow at context-switching and any
- programs running in PeekMessage() mode degrade performance (IMHO). Still,
- I run LoadMon anyway because it can show you which apps are real pigs and
- which apps are well-written :-) :-) :-) (don't kill me, I'm only kidding!)
- Actually I'm not really sure how accurate LoadMon is. Have fun with it!
-
- Look for:
- hyperoid - a neato game for Windows
- ls - *nix ls command with MUCHO bells&whistles (couldn't live w/out it!)
- blitfix - util that sets the CS_BYTEALIGNCLIENT bit on all top windows
- (speeds up my 1024x768 display by a factor of 3)
- eyecon - xeyes clone (may have to be renamed)
- ilbm - Amiga IFF bitmap viewer (supports HAM mode and palettes!)
- life - 7 blit life with a few bells&whistles
- mbrot - mandelbrot hack that runs in the background
- yow - Zippy the Pinhead in his very own icon, telling it like it is
- (more games... stuff... junk...)
- Coming real soon now to a (net,BBS,Wherever this stuff ends up) near YOU!
