Screen Machine Description

The Screen Machine application was designed to be a program that captures screen shots of the full screen of your computer in action at 1 minute, 5 minute, or whatever intervals you choose. For example, if I surfed the internet using Netscape or some other browser, checked my email using Eudora or some other email client, did some on-line chatting with an IRC client, and then played some games like Age of Empires, Crazy Taxi, MAME 32, etc - then Screen Machine will capture screen shots of all of these programs in action at the time intervals specified and store them in the directory specified. These screen shots would provide a record of what the user did during the time they were logged on. This program might be useful for anyone who wants to check what someone is doing / typing on your computer. e.g. keep track of what your teenage kids are typing while using the internet or any other programs. Screen Machine captures screen shots to a directory you specify, and can also log all screen capturing activity to a plain text file. In addition, you can use the following options : - Only capture screen if key pressed or mouse clicked since last screen capture. So, if the screen saver is running, or no-one is using the computer then screen shots will no longer be captured. By default, this option is enabled. - Only capture screen if the screen's contents have changed. N.B. A change of just one pixel is a change - so if the clock changes, or a scroll bar moves, or something in a form or status bar changes, then this means the screen has changed, and the screen will be captured. By default, this option is enabled. - Only capture screen if there is at least 10 MB of free disk space. So you don't fill up your harddisk with screen shots. By default, this option is enabled. The program is designed to run without any user intervention for obvious reasons - you don't want to alert someone that you are watching them / snooping on them. So, if any errors are encountered, these will be logged to the log file, but no error messages will be displayed to the user.
