A program which displays how much chip/fast mem is available and can
display totals and largest blocks. It can also give warnings when any
of the memory levels falls below the definable settings. The warning
can either be a change in the text display colour in MM's window or a
beep screen warning if the window is not able to open on the frontmost
screen.
 MemMon can also be set to follow you to the frontmost screen (if public)
as you flip between different screens. It will "remember" the X and Y
screen positions on up to 20 different screens in any one session.
 It can also be "hidden" and will re-appear if a warning needs to be
given.
 Fully controllable with user-defined hotkey combinations or with a
commodity exchange program.
 Descriptions of all the tooltypes follow.

Special thanks for beta testing and putting up with the odd "strange
behaviour" from MemMon in its previous incarnations to:

Fourteen tooltypes to mess around with:
---------------------------------------

(if any of the tooltypes can't be found, the following values are
 the default settings)


1) CHIPLEVEL=256  (measured in K) If chip mem gets lower than this
   level, a warning can be given.

2) FASTLEVEL=1024 (measured in K) If fast mem gets lower than this
   level a warning can be given.

3) SECONDS=1  Time between updates/warnings.

4) BEEPCOUNT=2  How many times the screen may be beeped as a warning
   that one of the levels has fallen below the warning level.

5) DEFAULTX=20  Default X screen position for the window.

6) DEFAULTY=20  Default Y screen position for the window.

7) TOGGLEKEYS=lalt t  User definable hotkey combination to hide or
   show the window.
   See "Hotkey Notes" later.

8) PUPPYMODE=Stay  (can be Stay or Heel or S or H) Selects if MM 
   will stay on the current screen or try to follow you onto the
   frontmost screen if possible.

9) PUPPYKEYS=lalt h  User definable hotkey combination to toggle
   the current PUPPYMODE between Heel or Stay.
   See "Hotkey Notes" later.

10) STARTSCREEN=Workbench  Select which public screen MM should
    start up on. If the named screen is not available or the field
    is blank, MM will try to open on the frontmost screen or the
    default public screen.
    
    Useful in combination with PUPPYMODE=Stay to open MM on a named
    screen that may not be at the front of the display.

11) SIZEKEYS=lalt s  User definable hotkey combination to toggle
    the size of the window between Big and Little.
    See "Hotkey Notes" later.

12) STARTSIZE=Big  (can be Big or Little or B or L) Selects the
    size of MM's window on startup.

13) STARTDELAY=0  Selects a delay (in seconds) before MM attempts
    to open it's window on startup.

14) CLOCKMODE=24  (can be set to 24 or 12 or 0) Might as well have
    some useful info in the window title bar :-)
    
    Shows the current time in MM's window as a 12 or 24 hr clock 
    or 0=no clock.


---------------------------------------------------------------------


Two gadgets to press:
---------------------

[ ] Snooze  

Same as pressing the TOGGLEKEYS hotkeys. Hides the window.


[ Heel ] or [ Stay ]

Same as pressing the PUPPYMODE hotkeys. Cycle between Heel/Stay mode.


---------------------------------------------------------------------


Hotkey notes:
-------------

To choose different hotkey combinations from the default ones (maybe
because of clashes with other programs having the same ones set) you
should choose a qualifier key and an individual key for each.

Qualifier keys should be either:

  lalt  ralt  lamiga  ramiga  lshift  rshift  ctrl

Individual keys can be any other key on the keyboard including small
case letters, numbers and Fkeys eg:

  lalt F1   ctrl 6   rshift z  (or anything else you want really)

If any of the hotkey combinations are set to the same keys as one of
MM's other ones, they will all revert to the default settings.


---------------------------------------------------------------------


A bit more info:
----------------

You can also control MM with a commodity exchange program eg:
Workbench:Tools/Commodities/Exchange or CxPx etc.
The Hide Interface, Show Interface and Remove buttons can be used to
control MM.

The program requires the "Xen.font" size 8, for use in it's window
display (everyone has this font - probably :-)

The program adjusts it's window height to take into account the font
size used in the window titles.

MM can't be run if another copy is currently running.
