ChipWatch 1.0 keeps an eye on your Chipram and will warn you if
it gets below the limit you specify via it's tooltype. This is
usefull on AGA or ECS only systems when you are doing a lot of
Browsing, Music playing, or have a lot of screens and windows open.
I hope this will help cut down on crashes due to insufficient Chipram.


Features:
---------

- Runs quietly in the background
- User defined "Minimim" Chipram setting
- User defined hotkeys can be set
- Runs as a Commodity
- Status of Chipram can be brought up at anytime
- Can be quit at anytime
- Ideal for your WBStartup drawer
- Free

Installation:
------------

Copy ChipWatch to your WBStartup drawer or anywhere else.


Usage:
------


All of ChipWatch's settings are done in it's icon (tooltypes).

CHIPMIN=300  : This is the deafult setting. Change it to whatever you like.
               Anything less than 100 is not recommended.

               NOTE: This value is in Kilobytes
               ---------------------------------

CX_SHOW=shift lalt s  : Key combination to bring up the ChipWatch sataus
                       requaeter. Change this to whatever you want.

CX_QUIT=shift lalt q  : Key combination to quit ChipWatch.

You can also use the Commodity Exchange program to handle this aswell.


Notes:
------

Main Status Requester (CX_SHOW)
-------------------------------

OK :      Simply gets rid of the requester after you read the Chipram info.

Update :  Updates the requester info.

Quit :    Quits Chipwatch.


Warning Requsester
------------------

This happens when Chipram has fallen below the Chipram minimum
you set (CHIPMIN).

OK :     Will get rid of the requster. If you did not close any windows or
         quit any programs, it will come back :)

Update:  Updates requester info. If the Warning is over upon updating
         you will be brought to the Status Requester.


Ignore:  Will not display the warning again, regardless how much lower
         your Chipram gets.

Note:    The warning gets re-set from Ignore if Chipram rises above the
----     warning limit.


Quit:    Quits ChipWatch.
