- OS/2 Clock - Comments
-
- This program provides an analog or digital clock for the OS/2 desktop, and,
- because my boss wanted it to do so, it also monitors the system load, either
- as a percentage of CPU usage, or as a count of active tasks. The clock's
- border changes color from green to yellow to red as the system load increases.
- The threshold values for these changes can be set by the user.
-
- I've provided the source code. Feel free to borrow ideas from it, just
- don't change the program and distribute it as if it were still my program.
- If you would like to see new features, drop me a note. My CompuServe ID
- is 72607,3111, and I check my mail several times a week. I'm interested
- in your comments.
-
- NOTE: If you'd like to see the program translated into another language,
- feel free to make your own version of ENGLISH.DOC, ENGLISH.CMD, ENGLISH.RC
- and ENGLISH.IPF. Make your own version and send it to me via CompuServe mail,
- and I'll build the HLP and DLL files and post the updated package out to
- CompuServe for anyone to download.
-
-
- Installation:
-
- Run the installation file ENGLISH.CMD. It will ask you where you want
- the program stored and whether you want it to be placed in the startup folder.
- The job will create a program object and place it either on the desktop or
- in the system startup folder. This object will have all its attributes set
- up correctly for running the program.
