Short: v4.0a - Watch lots o' files.
Uploader: agraham@hal9000.net.au (Ali Graham)
Author: agraham@hal9000.net.au (Ali Graham)
Type: comm/mail
Replaces: comm/mail/MailWatch.lha
Requires: Mail program (or similar),
wbstart.library or WBStart-Handler,
AmigaOS 2 or higher, HTML browser
to read the documentation
Version: 4.0a
This is a mail notification program which uses
external modules (specific instances of standard
Amiga libraries) to define its GUI behaviour.
Reasons to use it:
Implemented as a commodity.
Can watch one file or millions (well, I've only
tested it up to 16 at the moment, but there are
no program-imposed limits).
Well documented using HTML, with inline images etc.
Has a preferences program, to configure the
attributes for its GUI modules.
Can also run programs or scripts when the state
of the mailfiles change.
Can start programs via the CLI or Workbench, using
wbstart.library on OS 3.x systems, or
WBStart-Handler on OS 2.x systems.
Quits if run twice (in good AUISG style, unlike
Sabot).
Free - well, actually it's MailWare.
