AGB, if you open up the pretty graphical display, the text in the "User Info" section shows the total units processed for your account. It's updated from the central server, so that even if you're doing SETI over multiple machines you don't need to keep track on paper. smiley - planet

How's life, btw? We haven't chatted since "Goo Overflow"... smiley - biggrin

smiley - erm
Don't asksmiley - winkeye
Or you could read my journalsmiley - bigeyes

What I meant by recording the units, I meant I write down the details of each unit I download.
e.g. the last one I sent off was:
7hr. 5' 13" RA + 13 degrees 57' 36" DEC.
Saturday 02 December, 2000. 06:07:17
1.420927734 Ghz.
It took me almost 4 days, 64 hours 48 mins.

I do this *just* in case I am the one who finds the signal.smiley - smiley

Ah, I see... smiley - geek indeed, but none the worse for that! smiley - cheers

I may take a stroll past your journal later, but at the moment all my spare Guide time is taken up with trying to absorb the backlog of the discussion on Arpeggio of LeKZ' expulsion from the Guide. There are a lot of non-trivial issues being raised, and I want to try to catch up before the end of the thread accellerates away from me. smiley - rocket

As for SetiSpy, yes I did use it for a while, when I was crunching individual units at work. Erm can't remember much about it now tho.
Sorry. I only ever used it to keep a quick eye on things. Don't you have to point it to the client or something? can't remember. smiley - hug

When I tried to run it, all I could get was "setispy - idle" and I don't know how to get off thatsmiley - sadface
I don't know what you mean by 'point it to the client' sorry honey.
