- DialTimer1.4 - By Laurie Lee
- ----------------------------
-
- First sorry about this short doc file and the quality of it.
-
- Dialtimer is another "How long have I been on my modem and what did it cost
- me" program. It features an arexx interface so it can be started and
- stopped from dial programs. It also has a full intuition interface and is
- fully localised. (although I have not included any catalogs SORRY)
-
- USAGE
- -----
-
- Run from workbench only (Shell may work but there is no template). Sorry
- about the Crap Icon but as someone once said "I'm a programmer not an
- artist". Feel free to create one and send it to me for inclusion in a
- future release.
