Short: System monitor (MUI and AmiTCP optional)
Type: util/moni
Uploader: cosinus@deepthought.north.de (Christian Stelter)
Author: atte@crash.north.de (Andreas Gelhausen)
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 'scout24.lha' includes the release version 2.4 of scout.
Changes from release 2.3 to release 2.4:
========================================
o Fixed enforcer hit at freeing assign pool.
o Changed routine for getting screen mode names.
o Fixed enforcer hits at the beginning. (Oh no...)
Changes from release 2.2 to release 2.3:
========================================
o Added cycle gadgets for sorting to some lists. The starting
states of these cycle gadgets can be saved through tool types.
o Fixed: the About window gave MUI 3.0 trouble.
o Easy requests were not be opened on the right public screen.
