|

|
|
|

|
|
<P>The Watch client is a file-change notifier. It provides a button on
|
||
|
|
your tkgoodstuff panel that can display an icon indicating the status
|
||
|
|
of a file, a text message indicating
|
||
|
|
"Unchanged"/"Changed", or both. A more detailed
|
||
|
|
display is available in multiple-file mode (below).</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>Watch watches one or more files. For each file, at a configurable
|
||
|
|
interval Watch looks for a change to the file and flags the change by
|
||
|
|
beeping and changing the icon and/or label of the Watch button. Each
|
||
|
|
file is assigned an "alert level", and the icon indicates
|
||
|
|
the maximum alert-level of all changed files. </P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P>If you configure Watch to watch just one file, mouse button 1
|
||
|
|
produces a file-viewer (which updates each time the file is found to
|
||
|
|
have changed). If you use multiple files, then mouse button 3
|
||
|
|
produces a menu that indicates which files have changed, and which
|
||
|
|
allows you to view any of them individually, and button 1 produces a
|
||
|
|
viewer of all the files simultaneously. If you like, Watch can also
|
||
|
|
pop-up the viewer for a file when it is changed. Also, if you use
|
||
|
|
multiple files, you can replace the normal Watch button in the
|
||
|
|
tkgoodstuff panel with the menu of files, allowing you to see at a
|
||
|
|
glance which files are changed. You can also "tear off" the
|
||
|
|
files menu to position elsewhere on the screen.</P>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<P> Button 2 instructs Watch to regard files as unchanged. </P>
