Pinger is a simplistic application that allows you to Ping hostnames and IP addresses without having the knowledge of Command Prompt. Not only that but it has a useful tab which displays all Minecraft server status, although that isn't it! I have implemented a section as you can see above a part which will tell you the status of all SKCraft Servers, so you will never miss a session again. This program was made by myself and is the first thing I have ever produced, although I would not have been able to complete it without the help from SeriousSte as he broadened my understanding on sockets and how they work along with the code required. Please suggest addition features that you would like to see in future versions. Download the application from here Hosted By SeriousSte!

Path you should use huge bold texts for sub-titles, like ~~Info~~ ~~Download~~ what do you think? delete this post when you have read it please! see you! Edit ~~Gift to Path~~ http://imgur.com/a/84CWI
My suggestion, port it to the one (and probably only) operating system that barely anyone makes programs for... MAC.
I don't really think it would just simply be a case of porting it although I could be wrong. Its coded in VB.Net for the pure basis that this is what I am being taught in college. Im not too sure what the scene is for Mac OS X and .NET but I assume it is windows only.
I have looked into it and it maybe possible. My computer is actually in the process of being painted. At the moment though I am on my family imac and will have a go
Could be made for a Mac using Mono, but then you lose the nice metro look and feel. Besides, if you want to run Windows apps in Mac, buy Parallels or run BootCamp
Hi Path, I am a Mac developer (In generally: I know VB, C, Objective C, Python, lua, and currently learning assembly) and you can see some of my work on https://github.com/FreeManRepo . I can make a "port" (Basically, recode it in Objective-C) of this app, let me know if you need any help.
Having done Objective-C etc and knowing the best way to "port" things, if this program was to be ported, would be to use Mono-Develop and C#. As Path is learning VB.Net at college, I thought I'd help him learn faster by helping him with Pinger. Reason I'd use Mono is: Same code for all platforms (Linux, Mac, Windows, iOS, Android and WP). Alfhaily, if you would like to port it for your own project, you have my go-ahead however, note we connect to the Minecraft Server and deal with the Minecraft packets to get the Server Info.
