InfoSpy v2.15 (02/15/95)

InfoSpy is a general purpose Windows environment viewer allowing you view
Heap, Tasks, Windows, Classes, Modules, File Handles, DOS and Memory
Information.  You can trace messages, stack and set up automatic timers
to provide real-time tracing on virtually every aspect of Windows.

InfoSpy has full task scheduling capability allowing you to schedule the
execution of programs, Windows shutdown, Windows Restart, System Warmboot
& Coldboot and the termination of any task.

The Screen Capture Utility allows you to capture the entire desktop, a
specific window or cut a portion of the screen to the clipboard. You can
save the captured image as a bitmap too.

The DLL search utility will examine any local or network drive for all
programs that reference DLLs in order to provide a list of unreferenced
DLLs. In addition, all duplicate DLLs are displayed with an option to
delete the duplicates.

The ICON search will examine any file, directory or drive for files
containing ICONS and will list them (and draw them) in a convenient list.
You can copy any of the listed ICONS to the ClipBoard!

Ver 1.xx was highly praised by shareware magazines and software reviews
and was published in several books including "Byte Magazine's Programmer
Cookbook for Windows" and WUGNET's "Windows Configuration Secrets" as
a powerful,easy tool to inspect your Windows environment.

InfoSpy now includes STRESS functions that let you use InfoSpy to really
put the pressure on Windows and other applications.  You can grab Global
Heap, GDI Heap, User Heap, File Handles, Disk Space and Timers.  There is
also a function that continually does disk I/O to help simulate a busy
disk.

Real time tracing of stack, windows messages and serial comm ports has
been added as well as IntelliLib (tm) technology that lets you customize
InfoSpy by specifying with DLLs to load to add\remove functionality.

** What is your incentive to register? There is now an annoying splash
   screen that appears when starting the unregistered version as well as
   the word <unregistered> generously placed througout the program. The
   code size of the registered version is 50k smaller too! We had
   to add these features since we were getting lots of support calls from
   people who had not registered. In other words, you get support when you
   register! **

Version History
===============

Ver 2.15
 - New Windows Screen Capture functions. 3 functions to copy your desktop
   image to the clipboard. You can copy either the entire screen, a specific
   window or just a specific area of the screen (using rubber band cut) to
   the Windows clipboard.
 - Enhanced the System Menu to include the Terminal Lock, Screen capture and
   Windows Shutdown options.
 - Added a Popup menu activated by the Right Mouse Button which has the

   Win - Execute a program - Restart Win option. 3) added Execute parameters
   field. 4) Reduced # of scheduled items to 75 due to memory constraints.
 - Moved all Heap Examination menu functions to a new DLL -> INFHPDLL. This DLL
   was added to the IntelliLib list to allow Heap Examination to be selectively
   loaded or not.
 - Moved APPLICATION SUMMARY to the INFHPDLL, also added a task selection box
   to the application summary screen so you don't have to have a Task List
   active!
 - Added button to IntelliLib screen that displays a list of menu options
   affected by each library.
 - Modified SETUP program to allow customization of Library and INI file path
   information.
 - ON TOP feature now lets you select the window to put on top by using a
   crosshair cursor which you position over the window you want on top.

   file that was used by another program.

   by double clicking on them in the list box. Also corrected bug that would
   cause program to crash when you cloned multiple disks.

   search speed 2x.

   Date and File Size criteria. Can now be used to search for files that were
   modified on a certain day.
 - Double Clicking on a selection in the FILE, WORD & CHAR SEARCH list or
   pressing the SET DIRECTORY button will change the directory of the FILE
   MANAGER source list to that of the selected file.

   message to user if a copy is already loaded.
 - Increased IntelliLib capabilities to search for hanging copies of InfoSpy
   DLLs, and if it finds any it will unload them prior to loading new copies.
 - Added Startup status screen indicating what is being loaded, this will help
   in determining whether InfoSpy is hanging on certain systems... and where!
 - Changed File Manager library to load the INFVUGBL.DLL for status and
   progress boxes rather than having its own code.
 - Added warning dialog to the Comm spy telling the user that their Comm
   program needs to load before the Comm spy.

Definition Of Shareware
=======================

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before
buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you
are expected to register. Individual programs differ on details --
some request registration while others require it, some specify a
maximum trial period. With registration, you get anything from the
simple right to continue using the software to an updated program with
printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and
the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific
exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished
programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are of
comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and bad
ones!) The main difference is in the method of distribution. The
author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute the
software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For
example, some authors require written permission before a commercial
disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's
commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs
easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead
is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back
guarantee - if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
