Daylight! 4.01 is a Daylight Saving Time adjustment Extension. It makes the time changes from year to year for you without you having to worry about it.
To install:
---------
Daylight! belongs in the Control Panels folder inside your System Folder. Drag Daylight! 4.01 on top of your System Folder or on top of or into your Control Panels Folder. Delete any older versions of Daylight!. Open the Daylight! Control Panel and set it up. Close the Control Panel and restart your Mac.
REVISION HISTORY:
Version 4.01:
• Added support for the Daylight Saving Time bit in the parameter RAM that I just found out about. This is a great fix because now it doesn't matter if you boot from different drives - the computer's PRAM knows if you're in DST or not. Works fine with a Plus, which surprised me.
• Changed the wording in a dialog to make it a little more clear.
Version 4.0:
• Daylight! is now FREE. But see appeal in the Control Panel.
• Nearly a total rewrite of the Control Panel using a generalized object-oriented Control Panel framework for Control Panels and dialogs.
• New look for the Control Panel.
• Added balloon help for the Control Panel.
• Removed documentation file from upload.
• Dropped support for System 6. (sorry)
• If you have the Control Panel up 2 minutes before a time change, you get a warning that you'd better close it.
• If you have the Control Panel up at the time change, you get a message saying your changes have been lost.
• Changed my address. I don't plan to move again any time soon.
• Dropped the Time Zone hack.
• Probably lots of other things that I can't think of now.
Version 3.33:
• Made display of dates, days, and months conform to International systems.
• Modified the TEXT/styl resource to read a little better to international users.
• Generally cleaned up some things.
Version 3.32:
• Never released.
Version 3.31:
• Changed the address in both the documentation and the Control Panel. Thank you, Mail Boxes, Etc., for skipping town without warning AND trying to soak me for another three months rental fee just before leaving. Hope I can return the favor someday.
Version 3.3:
• Fixed problem which rendered earlier versions to bomb under System 7 in 32-bit mode (oops).
• Changed a dialog very slightly.
Version 3.21:
• Released with later v3.1 disks
• Fixed a bug in v3.2 which caused problems with other Extensions which installed GetNextEvent filters BEFORE Daylight! loaded.
Version 3.2:
• Released with v3.1 as a hack.
• Added a feature which allows entry of time zones and option to append time zone abbreviation to the time of day.
Version 3.1:
• Initial public release.
Version 3.0:
• Initial swipe at real-time time adjustment.
Version 2.0:
• Shareware release of long ago which adjusted time only at startup.
