!ScoreChk V1.05
===============

A simply application that monitors the Scoring file in MessengerPro
to let you know when this file changes.

FIRST USE
==========
Load MessengerPro.

When you first run ScoreChk, it will make a backup copy of the Scoring file 
and you'll not see any icon on the icon bar. 

(So to quit it you'll need to look in the Task display window and quit it
there.)


TESTING
========
Open your current scoring file in your text editor.
You'll find it typically at !NewsDir.UserHome.stuart.Messenger.Scoring
(replace 'stuart' with your own username you use)
Delete the 1st letter in the first word at the top and save it.
Within 30secs a ScoreChk window should pop up.

(If the Scoring file is blank then you're not using the Scoring facility in 
MessengerPro!)

Hopefully the 3 icons on the ScoreChk window will be obvious what they do.

'Ignore.....' will close the window and will use the current Scoring file as
the new default and take a backup copy.

'Restore...' will close the window and will overwrite the current Scoring file
with the one from the backup.

'Look at....' will open the backup and current Scoring files in your Text 
editor for you to look at the differences.


So if you click on the 'Restore...' icon then you'll find that the Scoring file
you changed has been restored to its former glory. :-)


Notes
=======
The backup Scoring file is kept in !ScoreChk.

!Scorechk simply looks at the length of the Scoring file to see if they differ.
It checks every 30secs.

If you use MessengerPro with lots of different users then you'll need multiple
copies of !ScoreChk running. One for each user.

This is because ScoreChk looks at the name under the MessengerPro icon to tell
which Scoring file to look at.
