I get a lot of PMs asking me about my custom AwesomeMiner coin program so I have decided to release it.
This is not for the technically illiterate. I am making nothing off this program. I do not offer support. I will however, be monitoring for good ideas, enhancements, etc. This is a rough first release. There WILL be bugs.
AwesomeMiner Coin Updater 0.1Details:
Updates coin statistics inside of AwesomeMiner for coins not on WhatToMine. This can be extremely useful for new and bleeding edge coins.
The income values will be very far off at first run. The program pulls the current nethash of each coin and stores them and smooths it out after a few minutes to hours. Maximum of 24 hours data is used.
Caches exchange prices to prevent API limits. Useful for starting up and debugging.
Supported Explorers: Iquidus and CryptoNote (I plan on adding more as I find them, or as requested for popular ones)
Supported Exchanges: Cryptopia, Stocks.Exchange, TradeSatoshi, CoinExchangeIO
Directions:
1) If you have not already, enable the AwesomeMiner HTTP API on port 17790 (no authentication). This program must be run on the same machine as AwesomeMiner (for now.)
2) Edit the config.json file to add coins you want to see updated. The block explorer type is very important. You can find the types usually at the bottom of the webpage.
3) Manually create the coin inside AwesomeMiner (I have a request in to Patrike to be able to add custom create coins via the API - yet to be implemented)
4) Run the program.

I quiet understand your opening statement " This is not for technical alliterate" but i was thinking and appealing whether it will be possible for you to run the basic tutorial on mining for the interest of the "technical illiterates" like my self who is interested in mining but do not know how and where to get the necessary help.
