WHAT IT IS FOR
I used to check over a dozen websites each night to see if new versions of the program I use had been released. This was time consuming and error prone. VerCheck automates this process by checking the websites of the programs you use to see if the version numbers have changed.

HOW IT WORKS:
* For each application, you give the URL of a page to check.
* You also specify some string that is on the * To add a new software hit (+), then enter an application
* name, an URL and the marker -- an expected response string
* that will be embedded in the web page returned if the
* version has not changed.
* Click'Check-for-New-Versions to check the entire list of
* applications to see if any have changed.
* Click Restore-Defaults to restore the factory setting
* URLs, and markers. You would do this most commonly after
* using a new updated version of VerCheck. Your own app
* settings wont be affected, but any of the factory apps will
* be updated.
* You can adjust the widths of the columns by dragging the
* separator lines between the column headers.
* This software is an implementation of the Version Checker
* student project described at
* mindprod.com/project/versionchecker.html
* The results of daily running this utility with the factory
* settings are posted at:
* mindprod.com/jgloss/utilities.html 'b' page, usually
* containing the version number. If this string is not
* present, presumably something has changed. You have to then
* manually figure out what, and install the new software, then
* adjust VerCheck to look for the new version number.

USE:
* To add a new software hit (+), then enter an application
* name, an URL and the marker -- an expected response string
* that will be embedded in the web page returned if the
* version has not changed.
* Click'Check-for-New-Versions to check the entire list of
* applications to see if any have changed.
* Click Restore-Defaults to restore the factory setting
* URLs, and markers. You would do this most commonly after

ADVANCED USE
you can use Java regular expressions in the marker field for
matching. Just prefix them with the string regex:
e.g. regex:version[- ]+9.9
See mindprod.com/jgloss/regex.html for more
information on regex pattern finding.
