Short: System monitor (MUI and AmiTCP optional) Author: atte@crash.north.de (Andreas Gelhausen) Uploader: cosinus@deepthought.north.de (Christian Stelter) Type: util/moni System requirements: Kickstart 2.04 (MUI and AmiTCP optional) 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. The archive 'scout25.lha' includes the release version 2.5 of scout. Changes from release 2.4 to release 2.5: ======================================== o Fixed small bug in the display of expansion data (AmiTCP). o Changed window titles by using Scout as TCP/IP client. =¦^) o The option 'STARTUP' can also be used for single ARexx commands. Example: 1> scout startup "OpenWindow Tasks" o Now there's no border for an active object by opening a list window. If you want to use the cursor keys for the listview gadgets, you have to press TAB first. o Added command 'PrintList '. This command is available via ARexx and shell (as parameter). o Small memory eating bug fixed. It only appeared by using Scout as client or daemon (TCP/IP). o Now the expansion list window also includes informations about the processor(s) and the custom chips. o Patch output removed ('Patches installed!'). o Some minor bug fixes made. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 624 238 61.8% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 scout.info 624 243 61.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +arexx.info 744 285 61.6% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +activatetask.scout 77 70 9.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +arexx.readme 477 248 48.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +arexx.readme.info 1007 380 62.2% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +breaktask.scout 737 287 61.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +freezetask.scout 621 239 61.5% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +poptofront.scout 900 335 62.7% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +settaskpri.scout 479 177 63.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +startup.scout 624 241 61.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +help.info 624 237 62.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +deutsch.info 84174 25156 70.1% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout-39.guide 482 254 47.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout-39.guide.info 75901 23302 69.2% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.doc 477 251 47.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.doc.info 135272 39127 71.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.dvi 78300 24668 68.4% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.guide 469 238 49.2% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.guide.info 624 234 62.5% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +english.info 62481 17491 72.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout-39.guide 482 254 47.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout-39.guide.info 54835 15504 71.7% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.doc 477 250 47.5% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.doc.info 93256 27380 70.6% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.dvi 57105 16782 70.6% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.guide 469 236 49.6% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.guide.info 624 235 62.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +icons.info 331 194 41.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +icons.readme 477 248 48.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +icons.readme.info 1574 1315 16.4% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +Scout.info 1208 999 17.3% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +ScoutDock 2344 1277 45.5% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +ScoutDock.info 2020 869 56.9% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +Product-Info 148640 68285 54.0% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout 6356 3125 50.8% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.data 1384 697 49.6% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.history 477 247 48.2% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.history.info 1888 744 60.5% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.info 1999 1023 48.8% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.readme 477 249 47.7% 13-Dec-95 17:47:32 +scout.readme.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 822141 273614 66.7% 15-Dec-95 10:36:56 41 files
