- Portal of Power PopWStat v1.0 for Windows 3.1
- ---------------------------------------------
-
-
- WHAT CAN PopWStat DO FOR ME ?
-
- Let me give a few examples:
-
- If you have one or more machines running Portal of Power, and one
- machine you use yourself and they are all connected in a LAN-network,
- you could use PopWStat.
- You could then have PopWStat running on your Windows Desktop and keep an
- eye on the status of your lines. PopWStat will tell you if your lines
- are idle, scanning mail, or who they are polling or connected to. You
- do not have to run PopWStat on a machine that is running portal. You
- should just have access to the Portal directory (E.g. via a LAN-Network)
- Please note that you should have both Read and Write access to the
- directory, because PopWStat will write its own CFG file there.
-
- If you are running Portal of Power under windows (As I do myself), you
- have a quick way of determining the status of Portal of Power if it is
- running in the background.
-
- I have tested PopWStat, and found that it is impossible to measure any
- loss of Windows-Performance when running PopWStat. It takes about 40 Kb
- of memory.
-
- Please note that I have only tested PopWStat with Windows 3.1, but it
- should work as well under 3.0
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- The only file needed is POPWSTAT.EXE. Copy it to your Portal Homeland.
- (The directory containing your Portal cfg-files etc.)
-
- STARTING PopWStat
-
- From Windows you just start PopWStat from your portal-directory.
-
- CONFIGURING PopWStat
-
- In the control-menu of the window (The little box in the upperleft
- corner) you may select how often PopWStat checks the status of Portal
- of Power.
- You may also checkout the most unusable feature in the history of
- mankind... "Notify on changes"
- If you set this option, PopWStat will beep or play a sound (If you
- have a sound-card, you should set the sound for EXCLAMATION in
- the Windows Controlpanel) whenever something changes.
- If you change the size or placement of the PopWStat-window, theese
- informations are saved. When PopWStat are started the next time, it
- will automagically retreive theese informations and change it size
- and position.
-
-
- SENDING A POSTCARD

- You should send a postcard to me, if you like this piece of high-tech
- software. I collect postcards from people using my programs.

- DISCLAIMER
-
- PopWStat may be copied freely by anybody as long as the contents of the
- archive is not changed.
- You may charge a distribution fee for the physical act of transferring
- a copy, but no more than is necessary to recover your actual costs
- incurred in the transfer. Under NO circumstances is PopWStat to be
- distributed in such a way as to be construed as "value added" in a
- sales transaction, such as, but not limited to, software bundled with
- a modem, CD-ROM software collections or public domain/shareware disks.
-
-
- Use of PopWStat
-
- Use of PopWStat is absolutely free of charge.
- If you use the program, you should send a postcard to the author.
-
- Warranty?
-
- You must be kidding - I offer PopWStat totally free, so the only
- warranty you get is that when installed it will use some of your
- harddisk space. The author can under no circumstances be made
- responsible for ANYTHING that happens to/on your system (loss of data,
- lost profit, damage to your equipment etc.).
-
- Please note that allthough PopWStat is programmed and released by a
- Portal-Team member, it is NOT supported by The Portal Team.
