SnoopDos 3.1 -- System and application monitor
Copyright © Eddy Carroll, September 1994. Freely distributable.
Updated on January 2000 by Luca Longone and Massimo Tantignone
with permission of the original author.
* VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: this archive contains an updated version of the
* SnoopDos executable, with the version number bumped to 3.1. This was
* NOT made by the original SnoopDos author, Eddy Carroll, but instead
* by Luca Longone and Massimo Tantignone (with Eddy Carroll's approval).
*
* The purpose of this update is to remove an Enforcer hit which can happen
* with version 3.0 when a program is launched from ToolManager's dock and
* SnoopDos is running with its "SendRexx" patch turned on. Said hit doesn't
* seem to cause any harm, however it can be an annoyance for people which
* have Enforcer running all the time.
* The hit is apparently due to the way ToolManager sets up its message
* port and only happens when SnoopDos 3.0 is running. Since we can't
* fix ToolManager right now, we made SnoopDos able to avoid the hit.
* If you don't use ToolManager, you don't need this update.
*
* For the more suspicious people, the updated source code is on Aminet
* as well (util/moni/snoopdos31_src.lha). Note that just ONE line of code
* has been changed in this update, line 4466 in the "patches.c" module.
*
* The SnoopDos executable in this archive was compiled for the 68020 CPU,
* since on a plain 68000 you can't run Enforcer anyway, and, as already
* stated, the hit by itself is harmless (the real problem is Enforcer
* reporting it).
*
* The original SnoopDos 3.0 documentation is included in this update
* without any modification, but please note that all references to PGP
* can't be applied to this update. If you need confirmation about the
* genuine nature of this update you can ask us or the original author.
