I have written a small Applescript Studio application that displays a small window that shows: unit completion percent, cpu percent of boinc application, total cpu time and memory used by the boinc program. It works on my three macintosh systems, but I need a few testers with different setups.

The applescript (source included) uses grep to scan the client_state.xml file for the unit completion number. Uses ps to get cpu and memory stats for the boinc application.

It writes one file into ~/Library/Preferences for the location of the client_state.xml and refresh interval.

Thank you for your help
