Ute 1.1
Ute - Ute is a compact utility with Time Syncing, Window Shutdown control, Wave File playing, Delayed /
Controlled Running and Wallpaper Changing capabilities. It is a collection of some Sinner Computing
utilities (iTimeSync, Slam and QWave.) with three new functions are also added. (Run, Wallpaper and
CD.) It is optimised for Command Line Control but the Wallpaper Changer and iTimeSync can also be
operated in window mode.
The iTimeSync function synchronizes your computer clock with an
internet time server. You can set up to five different time servers, which can be automatically
checked in turn on a failure to connect, and a positive or negative time offset can be set if you
like your clock to be fast or slow.
The Window Shutdown function, known as Slam, adds the
ability to easily shutdown, restart, log off or power-down the computer. This can be useful for
shutting down windows automatically at a set time using the built in Windows Scheduler. Force can
be used to closed crashed programs, and delayed / warned shutdowns are also supported.
QWave
is a compact alternative to much larger audio File player. It allows most audio files to be played
virtually instantly as opposed to waiting for a larger program to load, display an window, and then
play the sound. Auto file type registering is supported, as well as early sound termination for
larger files.
The Wallpaper changer function will randomly choose and resize an image from a
given directory. It natively supports most JPG, GIF and BMP files.
Finally, the Run function
allows a program / file to be run with process priority, delay and cancel options and the CD drive
function can open, close or toggle a CD draw.
All of the functions have logging functions and
settings that are saved for default use. Many of these settings can be overridden or changed when
run in Command Line Mode. Due to being written in Assembly Ute requires under 150kb of hard drive
space.
