Short: V1.3 - Small prog to observe memory usage of other progs Author: Daniel `ThunderPig` Raedel Uploader: thunder@mipool.uni-jena.de Type: dev/misc USAGE: Run WatchMem SIZE/N,DELAY/N, where SIZE is the amount of bytes that shall be stolen every time you click on the `Steal`-Gadget (using this feature, you can test your program's reactions when it has to run under `low memory`). Clicking on `Release` will release the whole stolen memory. The SIZE may also be modified with the integer gadget in the window. DELAY is the number of 1/50 seconds the program waits until it refreshes the display and asks for messages. Default: SIZE=25000, DELAY=5. Starting from Workbench: There are four Tooltypes the program looks for: SIZE - see above DELAY - ... TOP - the top corner of the window LEFT - the left corner FEATURES: font sensitive, *very* small (3024 Bytes turbo-imploded), runs on the default public screen, supports tooltypes and CLI-args FIXED BUGS: improved message handling; fell back to Delay() - but now user-configurable; killed fatal bug in selecting a public screen REQUIRES: OS V37+ ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 5304 2552 51.8% 16-Oct-96 10:50:26 WatchMem 11714 4890 58.2% 16-Oct-96 11:23:08 WatchMem.doc 902 368 59.2% 16-Oct-96 10:52:40 WatchMem.info 1253 716 42.8% 16-Oct-96 11:06:48 WatchMem.readme -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 19173 8526 55.5% 17-Oct-96 23:21:00 4 files
