This is the SPY program from my article "Spying on Windows" in the 1987
IBM special issue of BYTE.
The source code included can be compiled with either the 1.03/4 or 2.0
Windows Software Development Kit. Although there are a few minor items
in the SPY code that use Windows 2.0 features, nothing depends on them,
so the source code is still compatible with the 1.0x development kit.
There are two versions of the executable included - SPY.EXE, which was
compiled with the 2.0 kit and will run only on Windows 2.0, and
SPY104.EXE, which is for Windows 1.03 or 1.04. If you want to run the
latter, you should rename it as SPY.EXE first. Windows doesn't like it
if a .EXE file has the "wrong" name. (It must match the name in the
.DEF file.)
When Windows 2.0 becomes generally available, I will be coming out with
a version of SPY that uses more of the Windows 2.0 facilities to do a
little more thorough investigation of other applications. Stay tuned!
If you find SPY useful, drop me a note and let me know what interesting
things you have done with it. (No, don't send money - it's a freebie!)
