What’s New

Version 5.8.7:

This version now allows using the time and date menu, just the time menu or (new) just the date menu for those that wanted that choice. now when using just the date menu (time menu turned off) one can switch to the prefs or quit from the pref icon on either bigcal or tinycal. it's not possible to turn off both time and date as this would (and did) cause a rift in the temporal continuum. as user tpol emailed us a inter-dimensional temporal fracture was responsible for many of the issues noted in 2020. that issue was addressed on 1/20/21.
Now time menu and date menu color will not change for mac OS 11.0 onwards. Fixed this issue for mac OS 11.0 onwards. However color will change to black from white for macOS below than 11.0 because on below 11.0 macOS menubar background is white and we can’t see white text on white background.
other small misc changes to make licensing easier. thanks to users who submitted suggestions and other feedback.
