- CCTask for Windows 95/NT
-
- This little utility is designed to get you where no task manager has ever brought you
- before. Unlike many other task manager programs, this one has quite a few extra
- features, that we thought would be useful, that are normally not present in common
- manager utilities.
-
-
- Some features may require additional explanation:
-
- Basically, the interface is pretty simple. On the left you have the list of processes
- running, on top, and a list of files used, on the bottom. On the right, you have a bunch of
- buttons that do stuff.
- Warning(s):
- 1) In order for most buttons to work, one of the processes has to be selected.
- 2) Windows is a weird environment. Sometimes some things don't work.
- Buttons that do stuff:
- Hide / Show - Hides the application off your mind and out of your face.
- Caption - Allows to change application's caption bar.
- Minimize - Minimizes almost any application.
- Top / Bottom - Brings application to top.
- Kill / Destroy - Guess. Try to use Destroy though. Safer.
- Pad - Puts the contents of the Module list into a notepad
- If the Shift key is pressed, the information goes into the same one.
- Init - Initializes the window. If a program gets lost - use this.
- Sleep - Closes an application after X minutes.
- Allow Input - Closes out all input to an application.
- Priority - Adjust priority to your liking.
- Start / Stop - Start and stop timed update for the program window.
- Single - Run an update for the program window.
- About - Just try it if you are clueless.
-
- The check box AutoUpdate makes sure that the window is updated after any button is
- pressed.
-
- Cron:
- One of the most powerful features of CCTask is its CRON-style scheduler. It is unlike
- anything you've seen in windows. The basic idea is that you should be able to
- "schedule" anything anytime you want with the fewest number of lines. It closely
- resembles UNIX's cron (hence the name).
- Cron's strong point over the average scheduler is that, by letting the user specifying the
- day-of-month, it can handle irregular events such as for during holidays. Most schedulers
- only let you specify daily/weekly/monthly.
- We went beyond the regular, simplistic CRON feature of simply starting a program. You
- can use our Cron feature to schedule Start or "Kill" of a program. And system
- administrators might benefit from the log feature as well.
- All you have to do is simply fill in the blanks, and hit the Save button. As long as the
- task manager is running at that time - it will happen.
- It is recommended that if you are running the CCTask for it's Cron feature, you stop the
- auto refresh to save on the CPU time. The program is designed to be able to self-update
- on demand.
- Any time selection can be done using simple rules:
- * - means all
- 1-4,9 - means 1,2,3,4,9 (including) do NOT use spaces!
- Use 24 hours/day system for the Hour(s) line.
- Just follow these and you'll be set.
