Tk-SETI@Home - Copyright (C) 1999-2000 by Rick Macdonald <rickm@vsl.com>.

TkSETI is a GUI front-end to the SETI@Home client for UNIX. It is
fully customizable with lots of cool features:

o  can passively monitor an already running setiathome client.
o  can start/stop/pause the setiathome client when TkSETI starts/exits.
o  can manually run/kill/pause/continue the setiathome client.
o  can automatically stop the client during certain hours on certain days.
o  can run your dialup network start/stop scripts when the client needs to
   contact the server (even avoiding certain days and times).
o  restarts the client if it dies unexpectedly.
o  Linux only: can automatically run/kill/pause/continue the setiathome client
   based on system idleness by monitoring any devices such as keyboard, mouse,
   etc.
o  support for proxy servers.
o  tracks your personal best scores for big Spikes, Gaussians, Pulses and 
   Triplets and optionally notifies you when new bigger ones are found. 
o  displays your statistics such as work units processed, total CPU time, 
   progress of current work unit, largest Spike, Gaussian, Pulse and Triplet,
   client CPU usage, etc. 
o  SkyMap shows the location of all work units processed plus the location 
   of your best Spike, Gaussian, Pulse and Triplet. 
o  fully configurable to run on any UNIX platform.
o  lets you check the work statistics of your friends to see who is ahead.
o  optionally notifies you when a new version of TkSETI is available.
o  on-line help file.

TkSETI requires Tcl/Tk version 8.0 or newer.
