OS/2 Clock - Comments
This program provides an analog or digital clock for the OS/2 desktop, and,
because my boss wanted it to do so, it also monitors the system load, either
as a percentage of CPU usage, or as a count of active tasks. The clock's
border changes color from green to yellow to red as the system load increases.
The threshold values for these changes can be set by the user.
I've provided the source code. Feel free to borrow ideas from it, just
don't change the program and distribute it as if it were still my program.
If you would like to see new features, drop me a note. My CompuServe ID
is 72607,3111, and I check my mail several times a week. I'm interested
in your comments.
NOTE: If you'd like to see the program translated into another language,
feel free to make your own version of ENGLISH.DOC, ENGLISH.CMD, ENGLISH.RC
and ENGLISH.IPF. Make your own version and send it to me via CompuServe mail,
and I'll build the HLP and DLL files and post the updated package out to
CompuServe for anyone to download.
Installation:
Run the installation file ENGLISH.CMD. It will ask you where you want
the program stored and whether you want it to be placed in the startup folder.
The job will create a program object and place it either on the desktop or
in the system startup folder. This object will have all its attributes set
up correctly for running the program.
