  16.   WsMon is a utility to simulate the console of a Novell Netware file
  17.   server that you run from your workstation.  The only requirements are
  18.   that you have Novell Netware Version 2.xx or greater, have console
  19.   privledges, and an IBM-PC or compatible microcomputer.
  20.   
  21.   Features:
  22.   
  23.   CLEAR    - Clear Connection by number.
  24.   DOS      - Shell to DOS.
  25.   FILE     - Display connections having a specified file open.
  26.   CONN     - Display up to 6 specified connections by number.
  27.   USER     - Display open files for a given Userid's Connections.
  28.   VIEW     - Display detailed open file information.
  29.   QUIT     - Quits the Workstation Monitor.
  30.   HELP/F1  - Display help screen.
  31.   REGISTER - Displays ordering and Copyright Screen
  32.   
  33.   Displays server name and utilization percentage.
  34.  
  35.   All commands may be entered from the DOS command line.  The 
  36.   following are examples of that usage.   
  37.  
  38.   C:\>WSMON "USER USERID"
  39.   C:\>WSMON "CLEAR 22"
  40.   C:\>WSMON "VIEW 22"
  41.  
  42.   
  43.   To invoke the program simply type WSMON at the DOS prompt and it
  44.   will begin running.
  45.   
  46.   You will immediately recognize a screen similar to the Novell File
  47.   Server Console Screen.  This screen displays 6 connections with
  48.   connections 1 - 6 being the default.  The User Name and the first
  49.   8 files for that connection are displayed.  If the file is open
  50.   exclusively you will see "EXCL" to the right of the filename.
  51.   
  52.   From here you will notice the Server Utilization and file usages
  53.   change as required.  Press any key or enter a command and the
  54.   scanning will stop and you will receive the ":" prompt.  You may
  55.   now enter a command.
