» pwrstat v2.5 Description
Clutter free and really small (12800 bytes) battery and memory monitor.

Displays a battery bar at the top of the screen. The bars are segmented (to let users gauge power/memory levels in percentage).

To install, download the .exe file and put this .exe file straight into your PDA (don't put the actual program in the startup folder, not as good to put it in memory card too as it'll get slow to load. A place like Program Files will do). Then make a shortcut of the program to your startup folder. To stop a running instance, re-run the .exe and it willl prompt you to stop all running instances.

Update Description:
v2.5:
- Updated battery bar display method. Reduced flickers & count of screen refreshes.
- Corrected battery bar height. Previously draws 1 extra line of pixels.
- Bar update frequency reverted to 4 seconds.

v2.4:
- Changed battery bar display method. Now works peacefully with password/keylock application. Many other screen display/update problems seemed to have disappeared.
- Changed to only display itself when it seems like the NavBar is displayed. Hidden when full screen apps are running.
- Reduced number of refreshes caused by window messages.
- Bar update frequency changed to 5 seconds.

v2.3:
- Added HKCUSoftwarePwrStatBarHeight registry key (valid values from 1 to 4 pixels) for battery & memory bar height.

v2.2:
- Works around a problem faced in versions 2.1 & 2.0 with full screen apps, where the taskbar is surfaced on full screen apps. Tapping on the location where the Ok button is will also activate the Ok button when it's supposed to be underneath the full screen app.
- Has known issue of not being able to work peacefully with the password application. However, will most probably work with apps such as Wisbar.

v2.1:
- Memory bar now reflects memory available without including amount available from store, which is only applicable for Win Mobile 2003SE and below. This now lets it work consistently under Win Mobile 5 as the store doesn't exist under Win Mobile 5.
- Battery bar color & memory bar color can now be separately changed in HKCUSoftwarePwrStat*. Restart pwrstat to see changes.
- Refreshes every 4 secs now.

v1.0:
- Internal engine completely revised.
- Doesn't update the screen at 10Hz anymore. only updates every 8 seconds. means lower CPU usage.
- Bar colors can be changed by editing registry keys HKCUSoftwarePwrStat*... restart pwrstat to see changes.
- Changed to let it stop a running instance.

Version 1.0 was derived from Powerstatus by Inteks.
