- Disk Free Monitor, ver 1.0.5
-
- Description:
-
- Disk Free Monitor is a utility which will inform you of the free
- space on your various disks. The program is conveniently placed in
- the traybar (right corner of the Windows taskbar).
-
- If you find the program useful, I suggest placing a shortcut to it
- in the startup folder.
-
- You only need the diskfree.exe file to run it. If you don't want to
- use the source code (src.zip), just throw it out.
-
- If you want to use the source, you'll have to get my TCoolTrayIcon
- component which you can find at major Delphi sites.
-
-
- Features:
-
- The program will inform you of the free space on your harddisks, when
- you hold the mouse over the program icon. You can also click the icon
- to get a popup menu. This menu can be configured to show information
- on other drives as well as your harddisks.
-
- From the popup menu you can select a drive, and a window will be
- opened, showing the contents of the drive. If you hold down a SHIFT
- key, the drive will be explored rather than opened.
-
- You decide whether you want the free space reported in kilo-, mega-,
- or gigabytes, and how many decimals you want.
-
- The program will only use cpu-time when you are moving the mouse over
- the tray icon, so don't worry about having it running in the background.
-
-
- Known bugs:
-
- - As far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong) zip drives are reported as
- fixed drives, though they really are removable. This is the way
- Windows reports them. Don't ask me why.
-
-
