- IPQuery v1.6
- Written by David Terracino <tiamat@warwick.net>
- ===============================================
-
- This program is very simple - its sole purpose in life is to tell you what
- your current IP address is.
-
- Why do you want to know this? Say you are using a program (such as an FTP
- server, or Cu-SeeMe) that requires you to give your current IP address out
- to other people, so that they can connect directly to your computer. IPQuery
- provides you with a quick-and-dirty way to view this information.
-
- To use IPQuery, just unzip the distribution archive anywhere and double-click
- on the executable (IPQuery.exe) to run it. It will report back your host
- name and IP address, if they are currently assigned.
-
- This is my very first Visual C++ program. It has worked on all of the
- systems I have tested it in thus far; if you come across any problems, or have
- any suggestions, please email me or visit my home page. I would appreciate
- any feedback I could get, since Visual C++ is a huge undertaking.
-
- If you use this program, please email me and let me know that you find it
- useful. This program is completely free of charge.

- Revision History
- ----------------
-
- v1.60 - Current version. Fixed a bug that caused some systems that
- were not dialed in to display loopback's IP address
- (127.0.0.1) instead of the string "No IP Address assigned"
-
- V1.50 - Added Copy and Refresh to the system menu of IPQuery. Now
- you can leave IPQuery minimized and right-click on it to get
- a menu that includes these two functions.
-
- v1.40 - Added a Copy button that will copy your current IP address
- to the clipboard, giving you the ability to paste that number
- directly from IPQuery to other programs.
-
- v1.30 - On minimize, the program's caption changes to display your
- current IP address instead of the program name.
-
- v1.20 - Fixed the hardcoded text colors. Colors are now taken from
- your current Windows color scheme. Minor code reorganization.
- Minor icon change.
-
- v1.10 - Added minimize button, so you can keep IPQuery running in the
- background; and refresh button, so while it is running, you can
- update the IP address it displays. Useful for if you get
- disconnected and have to reconnect (while will assign you a new
- IP address).
-
- v1.00 - Initial release. Fixed a bug that caused a GPF if you were using
- a dialup connection with dynamic IP addressing and weren't actually
- dialed up (ie weren't assigned an IP address).
-
- v0.01 - Test version, internal only.
