Script Timer Status Monitor 1.0 beta
2006/08/08 23:31
'STStatusMonitor' 1.0 beta2 is now available to
registered users of Script Timer 2.0 and higher. This
little application places an icon in the system
status bar to allow you to monitor the state of the
Script Timer scheduling engine. The icon also has a
menu attached that allows you to open Script Timer
itself and to start, stop, or force quit the
scheduling engine.
(The system status bar is that area at the right end of the menu bar that shows the clock and the status of various items such as the sound level.)
Eventually the status monitor will be integrated into Script Timer, but for now you need a way to control it without having to use the Terminal application, since it has no user interface. A script application called 'toggle STStatusMonitor' is included that allows you to turn STStatusMonitor on or off. If you run this application while STStatusMonitor is not running, it will be started, and if you run it while STStatusMonitor is running STStatusMonitor will be stopped.
Anyone interested in trying this out, please contact us. Your comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
