M + Position on the table Software

Hi people,I am looking for a software which would display the value M and my position on the table (early, middle, late). I don't know a lot about software so I was wondering if there was some software on the market that could allow that.I know one that is called Tournament Indicator which display your value M at all time but it displays your position on the table only after the flop is dealt (very useless in my opinion). What I would like is a software that display the position right after the hand is dealt. Is it possible?Of course, I know the position is very easy to see. But with 15 tables +, a big early, middle or late position in my screen would help me save some time.Thank you very much

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/45/software/You should probably take a look at the very top sticky thread, I think that is likely a good place to ask your question, a lot of developers and heavy users of free poker software are in that forum.

HEM can display your M, but I

HEM can display your M, but I don't know of software that will display your position on the table.Most software uses Hand Histories to calculate stats such as "M", so the "M" will be on hand behind. On a site like PokerStars, you need to write a TON of code to operate in real time, and depending on what you are tying to do, it's often undependable, because the software will need to read pixels to determine any numbers or cards, etc. There is no easy way to read what a player's stack size is, for example. The software needs to use pixel recognition, which is a laborious process.In order to determine your position, the software would need to determine who is sitting out , where the button is, where the blinds, are, etc. While this is doable, it is probably not practical, because whenever PokerStars changes their table layout even slightly, it will need to be reprogrammed.Thus, the only real answer is using the Hand History from the previous hand.
