     1. The Ultimate Screen Clock 6 Revision 2
     _______________________________________________________________________



     The Ultimate Screen Clock 6 has been updated. This release:


     - Adds the Derelict clock style - technology left behind by a vanished 
       civilization, a faint echo of a forgotten epoch, a dystopian harbinger 
       of a crumbling empire or a rusty old clock with funky neon tubes... 
       your call. Comes in three flavors.


     - Updates the World Time window to include, among other things, the 
       distance between where you are and where you want to know the time of.
       Note that the first time you open the World Time window, you'll be
       prompted to set your current location. Also, in the event that you 
       somewhere that doesn't measure distances in miles, you can select 
       metric units as well.


     - Adds the Aviation analog clock option, which appears - perhaps not
       surprisingly - in the Derelict style.


     - Fixes a number of graphic issues in the Steampunk clock style.


     - Fixes a bug in the JPEG import library that could crash the 
       application when the JPEG library was confronted with certain 
       pathological data.


     - Updates a number of functions of the screen saver.


     - Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software 
       developers never really stop meddling with.      


     - Updates the documentation.
