- What is Scout?
- ==============
-
- Scout is a tool that allows you to monitor your computer system. It
- displays many different things -- like tasks, ports, assigns,
- expansion boards, resident commands, interrupts, etc. -- and you
- can perform some certain actions on them.
-
- For example you can freeze tasks, close windows and screens, release
- semaphores or remove locks, ports and interrupts.
-
- Through AmiTCP it's also possible to use Scout as an TCP/IP service.
-
- Since version 2.0 of Scout you can use nearly all implemented
- functions through shell parameters. Therefore it's not necessary
- to install MUI for using Scout, but you will need MUI if you want
- to use Scout with its graphical user interface.
