CIMClock 1.0
============

CIMClock is just a small utility which allows me to see
approximately how much time and money I'm spending on
CompuServe. It floats on top all the time, so it's always
easily accessible.

When you connect to an extended service, just click on the
Connect button and the timer starts.


Installation
============

Just copy all the files to the WinCIM directory; that's
probably the best place to put them. You can create your
own directory, however, and place the files in there.


How to Use CIMClock
===================

When you first start CIMClock, you will notice that the
Window's caption contains the current date. That date will
always indicate the day you started adding your time and dollars.

The three buttons are, from left to right:

Connect / Disconnect
--------------------
When this button is up (the connector is disconnected from
the network on the icon), the timer is not working. Click
this button once and you will notice that it stays down, and that
the icon has also changed to indicate that you are connected.
The timer is now working. Click the button again, and it will
come back up to its original state.

As you enter a forum, click this button to add to your time.
When you return to basic services, click it again to stop
the timer.


Settings
--------
Clicking on this button will simply bring up another Window.
It is here that you can set the hourly rate for your CompuServe
use. So, if you are paying $12.00 an hour, you need only type
in 12; if you are paying $22.50, then 22.5 will do. Click on OK
to return to CIMClock. Note that if CIMClock is running while you
change the rate, it will start using the new rate as soon as you
click OK.

The reset button will reset your time and money spent to 0, as well
as set the Window caption to the current date.

Exit
----

The third and final button is the exit button. When you quit
CIMClock, the Window's date and the totals accumulated will be
saved.

To the right of the buttons are the time you have spent so far,
as well as approximately how much this time has cost you.


That's it! Not too complicated, eh?

This program is freeware, so I hope you enjoy it. If you have any
problems with it, you can e-mail me at 71033,1617. Even if you
DON'T have any problems, you can still just drop me a line and say
Hello! I always like to know where my program is being used (would
that make it "freewhere"?).
