Peek-a-Boo is a utility to monitor and manipulate all running
processes. You can watch how much CPU time each process uses, adjust
the CPU time requested by each process, and look at any piece of
information available through the Process Manager. The Process Manager
(available in MacOS System 7 and later) maintains a dozen or so pieces
of information about each running process (normally an application);
many fine utilities show a subset of this information. My personal
motivation for writing Peek-a-Boo was that no existing utility showed
precisely the subset of Process Manager information I needed to know
at a given time. So I made sure that Peek-a-Boo can show any piece of
information available via the Process Manager; preferences can be
edited to view only those pieces of information you need. And, with
the Special Technology of Peek-a-Boo ST, you can now adjust the
priorities of processes to customize which processes get more
processor time.
