[APN] July 17 2006: WiTS 1.0 released.

See [http://wits.magicsplat.com] for details, downloads and source.
See [https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=90123] for a sample screen shot.

'''What is WiTS?'''

WiTS provides you with cross-linked, filtered views of a
Windows system.  These views include list views with
optional filtering and sorting capabilities, and detailed
property page views for individual objects. Where
applicable, views are linked to allow for easy
navigation between related objects.

In addition to viewing properties, WiTS provides tools for
some common tasks related to these components.

WiTS starts up automatically and installs itself into the
system tray in the taskbar. In addition, it can be
configured with hotkey support for quick access.

Currently supported object types include:

   * Operating system and hardware
   * Processes
   * Services
   * Users
   * Groups
   * Logon sessions
   * Drives and volumes
   * Local and remote shares
   * Network interfaces
   * Network connections
   * Printers
   * Handles

WiTS is built using (amongst other packages) [Tile], [tablelist], [TWAPI], [Snit], [winico] and [scrodget].

[APN] This bug report refers to the 1.0 Beta version.

[Alastair Davies] thinks this is an interesting tool.  Only one problem: the "OS and Hardware" window gives me an "Application Error" and all entries are "N/A".  The other windows are very informative, and the interface is attractive and simple to use.  Nice work!  I'd be happy to supply any further information if you're trying to solve the problem I ran across.  The full text of the error message is:

 No data to return.
    while executing
 "PdhCollectQueryData $hquery"
    (procedure "collect_perf_query_data" line 2)
    invoked from within
 "collect_perf_query_data $hquery"
    invoked from within
 "try {
        set hcounter [add_perf_counter $hquery $counter_path]
        collect_perf_query_data $hquery
        if {$opts(interval)} {
           ..."
    (procedure "get_counter_path_value" line 19)
    invoked from within
 "get_counter_path_value {\\.\System\System Up Time} -interval 0"
    (procedure "get_system_uptime" line 2)
    invoked from within
 "get_system_uptime"
    (procedure "twapi::get_system_info" line 17)
    invoked from within
  (other uninteresting stuff truncated by [APN] for brevity)

[APN] I believe this problem is fixed in the 1.0 release. I could reproduce it on non-US English systems only and was caused by a character case mismatch when translating counter names into localized form. If you are seeing this on a US English system (using WiTS 1.0), please reply to this.
