Hello group,

Based on about a dozen reactions and suggestions I got on the trial version
of Rapido I made some changes and uploaded a new version.
Rapido is a small piece of software that automatically will download a JPEG
file from a given URL in a certain interval and show it on screen. It is
meant to be used to check TA propagation in (almost) real time by
continiously downloading ARGO screenshots from the web (ie. from
http://www.w4dex.com/argo/137khz.jpg ). In addition you can automatically
save the downloaded pictures, so even you do not want to stay up all night
you have an overview of what happened in the morning. To avoid that too
much disk space is 'eaten' a downloaded picture will only be saved to disk
if it is different from the previous download.
Rapido can be downloaded from  http://www.qsl.net/on7yd/rapido/rapido.htm .
