IP Monitor is a handy application which displays the current IP network address of your Macintosh right onto your desktop.
With IP Monitor, you'll no longer have to open the MacTCP/OpenTransport control panel in order to view your Macintosh's IP address. Additionally, IP Monitor allows you to copy the current IP network address to the clipboard, where it can be pasted directly to most applications and documents.
IP Monitor is especially useful to people connected to the Internet via the PPP or SLIP protocols, whenever IP addressing is provided dynamically by the host' server.
IP Monitor requires System 7 as well as an IP network driver such as MacTCP or OpenTransport.
Scripting
IP Monitor is scriptable. Please look in the Example Scripts folder, where you'll find AppleScript, QuicKeys 3 and UserLand Frontier script examples. These scripts demonstrate how to retrieve your Mac's current IP network address using IP Monitor's event suite.
Shareware Registration
IP Monitor is not free! It is a commercial software distributed as a part of the shareware system. Please, try it out for 10 days and if you don't like it, erase it — or better yet, give it to someone else who might be interested with it.
A $5 shareware registration fee will license one copy of IP Monitor for use on any one computer at any one time.
Mail your registration payment (check or money order) in U.S. funds to:
