+rem This batch file simply runs the viewer with appropriate
+rem command line arguments to cause it to visit a series of
+rem urls (specified in url.txt) and allows 15 seconds for each
+rem to load. 
+rem the output is put into smoke_status.txt. This is where you 
+rem will find if it successfully finished loading the various
+rem pages in the allotted 15 seconds.
+rem if the url.txt gets too large, the log file will suck. 
+rem keep that in mind. If it looks like it's getting unmanagable, 
+rem Bindu has some alternative filters to run it through to weed
+rem out the interesting information. She can be contacted at 
+rem bsharma@netscape.com
