[Version 0.12, 26 November 2001]

Based on Demon's web-based "Demon Pager" interface to
report@gate.demon.co.uk, this version is a stand-alone script written in
Tcl/Tk for UNIX or Windows. It shouldn't be difficult to port to other
platforms. Tested with Linux and WinNT+Cygwin, but not reliant on Cygwin
components. Hopefully. :-)

Updating every minute, you can see exactly when Demon are aware of
something going belly-up... in an unobtrusive little window on your
screen.

File size is < 5K and is a script, not a compiled binary.

Available from ftp://ftp.eridani.co.uk/pub/dpager

(the one script autodetects its environment)

The only external binary this script requires is finger, which you more
than likely already have.

Licence is GPL version 2. Improvements and suggestions welcome.
