- El-CID -- CallerID the easy way
- =================================

- Description
- ===========
- El-CID is a small program which enables you to make use of the CallerID
- function built into your modem. If your modem supports this function,
- and it's properly set up, El-CID will notify you of any incoming calls
- directly on your screen. El-CID also pops up on the frontmost public
- screen, so there is no need to flip screens to see who is calling.
-
-
- Requirements
- ============
- El-CID should work on all Amigas equipped with at least OS 2.04, but it
- also makes use of some new features present only in OS 3.0 and higher.
- El-CID uses about 56KB of memory when no phonebook is loaded. This does
- not take into account if bgui.library is loaded into memory or not.
-
- El-CID requires the following for proper operation;
-
- * A modem that has a built-in CallerID function.
-
- * The bgui.library in LIBS:, version 39 or higher.
-
- El-CID uses the excellent OwnDevUnit.library if it is present. That
- means that you do not have to quit El-CID when another program needs the
- device currently in use by El-CID. This does however require the other
- program to use OwnDevUnit.library too.
-
-
- Features
- ========
- Most of the following features are things I wanted myself, but I do hope
- that they appeal to you too.
-
- * Uses new features of OS 2.1, OS 3.0 or higher.
-
- * It is a commodity, and can be enabled/disabled at any time.
-
- * It uses BGUI.library for its GUI and commodity interface.
-
- * Uses OwnDevUnit.library if available.
-
- * It pops up on the frontmost public screen.
-
- * Displays the date and time in localized form. OS 2.1+
-
- * User may specify device and unit to use.
-
- * Simple phonebook, displaying the name of the caller.
-
- * Simple call logging, with date, time and caller.
