Preface

NewAlertHook, its documentation and the ss.library are Copyright (c) Martin

This archive can be freely redistributed, as long as all of its files are

All copyright notices in the programs and accompanying documentation files must

This software is provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind, either

Introduction
============
Many people don't understand Amiga system error codes displayed in the
alerts. These codes contain a lot of information and it's hard to learn what
they mean. This program tries to improve the alerts by adding the following
information:
- Name of program that caused the alert.
- Complete text description of the error.
NewAlertHook has to be installed by the AddModule utility (also included in
this archive) by
AddModule NewAlertHook INIT
The INIT switch causes NewAlertHook to initialize itself without rebooting
the system.
Requirements
============
- Kickstart 2.04 or higher.
Notes
=====
Thanks to Brian Gontowski for inspiration (InstallNewAlert), but this one
is significantly shorter (only about 3K).
