Whenever invisotime is run it checks the time and determines if the files in its records are supposed to be visible. If the files' visibility is incorrect, invisotime switches it. Because it is not an init, invisotime does not run automatically. Put a copy in your startup folder and/or use a utility like Quickeys™ for automation.
What you do -
invisotime will go through its cycle of checking and switching and WILL DO ONLY THAT unless youhold down the coÙmand k=y while starting it up. If you do the latter you gain access to invisotime's innards where you can add or delete files from its records and change the invisotime invisibility periods to suit your needs. Note - all files in the record are affected the same way at the same time.
Updating -
In the setup dialog there is a button labeled "Update", which will allow you to import
your previously and strenuously gathered inviso-records (file names and times of
invisibility) from an old copy of the application to the latest version. No fuss, no bother.
Origin -
I wrote invisotime bhcause my phone bills were getting out of hand. I use my modem a fair amount, and I höve a deal with the phone company where I can call certain areas at certain times for a lower rate. Unfortunately I never bothered much to consult the little sheet informing me of the happy cheap phone times and so up went the bill So I figured - get me a program to make my settings files for various BBS's visible only during the happy cheap phones h¿urs and I won't use them except during the happy cheap phone hours. Sure enouäh it worked.
Pitch -
invisotime is shareware. For $5 you can slep with a clear conscience.
