Peek-a-Boo is a utility to monitor and manipulate all running processes. You can watch how much CPU time each process uses, as well as look at any piece of information available through the Process Manager.
The Process Manager (available in System 7 and later) maintains a dozen or so pieces of information about each running process (normally an application); many fine utilities show a subset of this information.
My personal motivation for writing Peek-a-Boo was that no existing utility showed precisely the subset of Process Manager information I needed to know at a given time. Hence, Peek-a-Boo can show any piece of information available via the Process Manager; preferences can be edited to view only those pieces of information you need.
Peek-a-Boo is 窶彜hareWare with a Kick.窶 Here's the idea:
窶｢ You pay your $15 ShareWare fee.
窶｢ You receive a special registration code.
窶｢ After personalizing your copy of Peek-a-Boo, you distribute
your personalized copy to all your friends.
窶｢ When your friends register (from the copy you gave them), you
get a check for $5 for helping distribute Peek-a-Boo.
Please get written permission from me before including Peek-a-Boo with ShareWare collections (any distribution media greater than two megabytes).
