Notify
(ver 1.00)
Abandoned Freeware


Notify runs hidden in the background, and pops up a window which alerts
you whenever anything is modified in the monitored directory (or any of 
its subdirectories). The program uses very little memory and uses nearly
no CPU time.

The pop-up occurs on any of the following conditions:

- renaming file/directory
- creating file/directory
- deleting file/directory
- changing file/directory attributes
- modifying a file


Notify must be started from the Command Line, and then it runs as a 
Windows Process.  To quit the program, you must open the Windows Task 
Manager (or optionally, simply shut down the computer), go to the Processes 
screen, and End the process "Notify.exe".  

The command line syntax for startup is:

	notify [filepath]

for example "notify c:\foo".


QUIRKS:

* Notify will only start if the directory it is told to monitor already exits.
* You can not delete the directory you are monitoring until you quit Notify.
* You will be notified if changes occur in a monitored directories subdirectory.
* You can delete subdirectories of the directory you ar monitoring.
* You can run multiple instances of Notify, monitoring different directories.
* The filepath you type is what will be displayed in the notify popup...
	(eg., "c:\foo", ".", "\foo\bar", "d:\long folder name").



TYPICAL USAGE
-------------
Security: If you have a directory or drive containing sensitive data,
you may want to monitor it. You will receive a notification whenever
anything in that directory is changed.

Servers: If your machine is a network server, you may want to monitor
a directory that receives files or which is otherwise modifiable.

Debugging: If mysterious files are appearing in a certain directory,
running Notify on that directory may help you isolate the application
which is responsible.

Locking: You cannot delete a monitored directory (a sharing violation popup 
will appear), a quirk which can be utilized to prevent a directories deletion.
