NAME NAME
ALoad - show the loadfactor of your machine
VERSION = 1.1c
DESCRIPTION DESCRIPTION
This little tool will show the loadfactor on your machine.
I have wrote the program using some functions in the new
KICKSTART 2.0, so it will only run on a machine with KICK-
START 2.0 (sorry).
USE: ALoad
in your startup-sequence or better put it in the
SYS:WBStartup drawer, and it will be started as
soon as the workbench is started.
NOTE: The INFO-FILE must be in the same directory as
ALoad !!!!
You can add following description to your INFO-FILE :
WINDOW=x_pos/y_pos/width/height
TIME=time_cnt
FACTOR=value
x_pos,y_pos .... This is the position of the upper left edge.
width,height .... This is the size of the window.
Because of the windowborder the real
displaysize will be smaller.
time_cnt .... This is the number of vertical blanking
after ALoad will update it's display.
value .... This a integer between 1 and 31.
It controls the speed the peak
accelerated.
1 means very fast.
31 means very slow
the best value i found is 28 (26 is default)
Now you can modify the position and size and time and factor
buy simply closing the Window. (than you get the preference window)
If the window don't fit in the WBScreen, so the new
functions I used will correct it automaticly.
ALoad will close it's window if someone wants to close the Workbench
with the <CloseWorkBench>-Function from Intuition.
It will reopen it if the <CloseWorkBench>-Function failed or if
someone calls the <OpenWorkBench>-Function.
ALoad will monitor the loadfactor of your machine even
- window is closed (that means the workbench is closed)
- the blitter is owned by someone
- the workbench-screen is locked via LockLayerInfo
- Forbid() was called
but it will not update its display ,unless the system returns to
normal !
