Short: System monitor (MUI & AmiTCP optional) (V2.9) Author: shred@chessy.aworld.de (Richard Körber) Uploader: shred@chessy.aworld.de (Richard Körber) Type: util/moni Replaces: util/moni/scout26.lha Requires: Kickstart 2.04, MUI and AmiTCP optional Language: English (also German guide) URL: http://www.is-koeln.de/einwohner/shred This is the official continuation of the famous (and fabulous :-) system monitor from Andreas Gelhausen. What is Scout? ============== Scout is a tool that allows you to monitor your computer system. It displays many different things -- like tasks, ports, assigns, expansion boards, resident commands, interrupts, etc. -- and you can perform some certain actions on them. For example you can freeze tasks, close windows and screens, release semaphores or remove locks, ports and interrupts. Through AmiTCP it's also possible to use Scout as an TCP/IP service. Since version 2.0 of Scout you can use nearly all implemented functions through shell parameters. Therefore it's not necessary to install MUI for using Scout, but you will need MUI if you want to use Scout with its graphical user interface.
