    • WebChangeMonitor 26.06

      By Copernic · Posted

Allows to monitor several protocols, including HTTP and HTTPS. Allows to view and record differences. Available for Win7/10, Linux and others. WebChangeMonitor features: Allows monitoring of web pages and informs about content changes Indication of states of currently monitored items in the tool and taskbar Reporting as sound and/or email as well as log file or HTML log Several configuration / filter options Support all protocols, e.g. http, https Multi-threaded, running in the background Bulk-import and bulk-export of items (from/to CSV) to monitor Export of results to CSV file for further processing Allows running command on items states and/or showing diff (changes) of content with preferred diff-tool ...and many more! Open Source (C++, wxWidgets) Cross platform for Windows (7/10), Linux, RPi and Mac (if self-compiled) WebChangeMonitor 26.06 release notes: Release 26.06 brings mostly s but updates the underlying core infrastructure. A major compiler is used for both x86/x64 and WoA64 architectures. This also means that all core libraries are re-compiled accordingly which required some changes in the build scripts. One of the core libraries (cURL) has been updated to address vulnerabilities and a nasty linker error that was causing the need for a dedicated patch which could now be eliminated.

      You missed out, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus were beautiful epic masterpieces, I never got to play The Last Guardian sadly so can't really comment on that one.
