Hello, and Welcome to LoadMon!
LoadMon is a prettified system monitor. It basically shows the load on your
CPU and memory over time. I've tried to make this thing take up as little
time as possible, but Windows is fairly slow at context-switching and any
programs running in PeekMessage() mode degrade performance (IMHO). Still,
I run LoadMon anyway because it can show you which apps are real pigs and
which apps are well-written :-) :-) :-) (don't kill me, I'm only kidding!)
Actually I'm not really sure how accurate LoadMon is. Have fun with it!
Look for:
hyperoid - a neato game for Windows
ls - *nix ls command with MUCHO bells&whistles (couldn't live w/out it!)
blitfix - util that sets the CS_BYTEALIGNCLIENT bit on all top windows
(speeds up my 1024x768 display by a factor of 3)
eyecon - xeyes clone (may have to be renamed)
ilbm - Amiga IFF bitmap viewer (supports HAM mode and palettes!)
life - 7 blit life with a few bells&whistles
mbrot - mandelbrot hack that runs in the background
yow - Zippy the Pinhead in his very own icon, telling it like it is
(more games... stuff... junk...)
Coming real soon now to a (net,BBS,Wherever this stuff ends up) near YOU!
