INTRODUCTION
------------
What is AmiTrack?  Hmm, good question.

I was talking to an AmiPhone user a while ago, and
he was lamenting that it was hard to find another AmiPhone
user who was online to talk to.  We decided what was needed
was a way to find out who else is available, sort of an
"Active Amiga registry".

So that's what AmiTrack does.  AmiTrack is an AmiTCP program
that acts as the keeper of a list of Amigas that are currently
on-line.  It isn't limited to just AmiPhone users, either; you
can register your Amiga to advertise any message string you want.

This archive contains two executables: AmiTrack and AmiTrackServer.
AmiTrack is a client that you can use to notify the world of your
Amiga's presence on the internet, and AmiTrackServer is useful if
you wish to let people use your Amiga as a registry site.  AmiTrackServer
must be launched from the CLI, but AmiTrack may be launched from
either the CLI or by clicking its icon.


HISTORY
-------
1.41 : (Public Release 11/30/96)
     - Added the CONNECT Arexx command.
     * The Stupid bug that had AmiTrack choosing a connect program
       based on the target's position in the ListView, rather than
       the current selection in the CycleGadget is fixed.
       
1.40 : (Public Release 11/25/96)
     - Added ARexx support to the AmiTrack client!  See the ARexx
       section for details.
     - Added the ARexx directory and some sample ARexx scripts.
     - Added the TOP, LEFT, WIDTH, and HEIGHT startup arguments.
     - The AmiTrackServer now displays the number of clients connected.
     * The AmiTrackServer can now accept packets from hosts IPs that lack
       associated hostnames.

1.30 : (Public Release 11/4/96)
     - Added cool new icons, as given to me by Fredrik Rambris.
     - Added the ACTION0, ACTION1, ..., ACTION20 startup arguments,
       and the new action cycle gadget and app launching feature.
     - Added the CONFIRMAPPLAUNCH startup argument and menu item.t
     - Added the ALLOWMULTIPLE startup argument.
     * Fixed a bug that caused AmiTrack to register with the
       server on reconnect, even if it was marked "disabled".
     * AmiTrack no longer exits when its window is closed.
     * High-ASCII characters are now handled correctly.
     * The "socket in use" bug in the AmitrackServer is fixed. 
       (thanks to Xavier Bestel!)
     
1.21 : (Public Release 10/22/96)
     - Added a time display to the "logins refreshed" message.
     - Window now retains the previous title bar message after
       being closed and reopened.
     * Oops, a stupid bug crept in that broke the automatic
       pinging and updating.  Sorry about that!
     * Changed key-shortcut for the "About" box to lcommand-?
     
1.2  : (Public Release 10/22/96)
     - AmiTrack is now a commodity.
     - All the startup arguments have been changed, and new ones have
       been added.
     - Removed the iconify feature--use "Hide" and Commodities instead.
     - AmiTrack can now be started from the Workbench, and parses ToolTypes.
     - AmiTrack no longer requires AmiTCP to be running when AmiTrack
       is launched.  If AmiTrack is launched and AmiTCP is not running,
       then AmiTrack will just wait around quietly until AmiTCP is started.
       This allows AmiTrack to be placed in your WBStartup directory!
     - Added the "Enable" item to the Project menu.
     - Made isys.ml.org the default server
     - Made absolutely no changes to the AmiTrackServer code.

1.11 : (Private Release 10/13/96)
     - Added iconify-on-startup.
 
1.1  : (Public Release 6/28/96)
     - Separated the AmiTrack server and client into two separate
       programs, and integrated GetTrackList into the client.
     - Added a nice GUI to the client program.
     - The AmiTrack protocol has changed slightly--v1.1 is not quite
       compatible with v1.0.  Sorry!  :(
      
1.0  : (Public Release 6/7/96)
     - Initial release.  Works well for me, but untested in "real life".
