INTRODUCTION

 Sysmon is a system monitoring package based on a shared library and Shell
based support commands. It requires AmigaOS 2.04 or higher.
Main features are :

 - Precise CPU usage timing for all tasks with very low overhead.
 - System message logging daemon like UNIX syslogd (useful for debugging).
 - Safe System shutdown script (useful for BBS's and networked machines).

 This is a public *** BETA *** release, so it's not fully tested. In
particular, I am not sure if it will work on a 68060 based machine. So if
you are the lucky owner of a 68060 based amiga, please test this software
and report the resulting behaviour back to me. My E-Mail address is listed
in this file.
 Sysmon has been successfully tested on the following configurations :

 - A500 68000 ECS, 1 Mb Chip 1.5 Mb Slow 2 Mb Fast , OS 3.1
   20 Mb IDE-XT + 170 Mb SCSI HDs
 - A3000 68030 ECS, 2 Mb Chip 8 Mb Fast , OS 3.1
   100 Mb + 1 Gb SCSI HDs
 - A500 68040(PP&S) ECS , 1 Mb Chip 2 Mb Fast16 8 Mb Fast32 , OS 2.04
   50 Mb SCSI HD
 - A4000 68040 AGA, 2 Mb Chip 8 Mb Fast , OS 3.0
   250 Mb IDE + 1 Gb SCSI-2 HDs
 - A1200 68EC020/68882 AGA, 2 Mb Chip 5 Mb Fast , OS 3.0
   60 Mb IDE + 100 Mb SCSI HDs

 This software is intended for experienced users. In particular, there
are no GUI tools available yet; so if you are a mouse-maniac user that
don't like typing Shell commands or editing ASCII configuration files,
I'm afraid that this software is not for you.


DISTRIBUTION

 Sysmon is Freely Distributable Copyrighted Software (FreeWare).

 It may be freely copied as long as it is kept intact. However, the support
commands that do not require sysmon.library may be distributed separately.
(see the OTHER COMMANDS section below).

 It may not be sold under any guise. I don't want others to make money out
of my work. Distribution MUST BE FREE, except for media costs plus a token 
amount covering only shipping and handling.

 Authors of FreeWare may freely use the sysmon.library in their software.
Authors of ShareWare may use the library at the cost of giving me a free
registration (this includes upgrades as long as the software continues
to use the library). Authors of commercial packages MUST obtain a written
license agreement from me before selling software using the library.

 Fred Fish is explicitely allowed to include this package in his AmigaLibDisk
collection (either on floppy disk or on CD-ROM), as is the aminet group for
their Aminet CD-ROM.

 Usage and Distribution of Sysmon and sysmon.library is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to:
  - Anyone affiliated with the french society FRANCE-FESTIVAL-DISTRIBUTION
    (especially Serge Hammouche).
  - Anyone affiliated with MICROSOFT CORPORATION or its subsidiaries.


DISCLAIMER

 This software is provided "as is" without any warranty, either expressed or
implied. By using this software, you accept the entire risk as to its quality
and performance.
 Especially, as this software patches some private system functions, it can
not be guaranteed that it will continue to work with future operating system
versions, and it will certainly not work as is on a PowerPC based Amiga.


CONTACTING THE AUTHOR

 I can be reached by E-Mail at the following address : Etienne.Vogt@obspm.fr
 
 Bug reports must include the complete hardware and software configuration,
including any third party software that was running in the background.

 If you have any question or suggestion about this software, feel free to
send me E-Mail.
