Urgent Note: Urgent Note: MenuCalendarClock 4.5.0 and above require Mac OS 10.6 and thus won't run on PowerPC Macs! Please stick to MenuCalendarClock 4.1.2 for older systems.

Please Note: In order to provide better keyboard navigation and menu shortcuts, MenuCalendarClock now has a regular application menu (and necessarily a dock icon). This enables a more efficient workflow for many common tasks like creating new To Do Items, Events or copying today's date in the clipboard and allows us to more easily add more functionality (like event editing) in the future. An advanced display preference lets you turn off the dock icon for all users. Thanks to Apple, this can only be done with write access to the application and for all users simultaneously. Also, you have to re-do it after every update.

• Fixed: nasty day-of-week bug in schedule list that resulted from an Apple API change. Thanks for all the feedback regarding this bug!
