This drawer contains the sample programs. To use any of these programs. you
must use the full "StartMenu" program (with the taskbar)!
AudMon
This simple program is mostly an example of animated buttons. It will
create a Clock button with four circles - each circle represents one
of the four audio channels. When a channel has data in it, the circle
"lights up".
To install it to the "StartUp" drawer so that it runs evertime you run
"StartMenu":
copy "AudMon" and "AudMon.info" to "StartUp"
copy all the "aud#?.bru" files to "StartUp"
To quit AudMon, click the button.
MemMeter
This one creates a Clock button with three bars. The left-most bar
represents Chip ram, the middle bar is Fast ram, and the right bar is
Total ram.
To install it to the "StartUp" drawer:
copy "MemMeter" and "MemMeter.info" to "StartUp"
If you click on the button, a window will popup with a numerical
display of your available memory. To close this window, simply click
on it. If you leave it open, its display will be updated along with
the button.

in the background waiting for commands. See the "README" file for more
