[request] Ical For Mobydock

I love the new mobydock, but want an ical on it.

I've seen programs in the past that, when run, update a png file for the current date. Does anyone know where I could find one?

is there a docklet type of ical for mobydock

i really don't feel like screwing around with the registry

this program does not screw with the registry. most programs save their settings in the registry - this is what you are doing. the only things added to the registry are under that program's section in the registry, there is not a chance of upsetting any other programs.

This program seems to be a good workaround until a real docklet is made...but it's kind of kludgey...doesn't update the dock, needs hand editing of registry values...

Updating the dock is not possible. If it is shut down (without using its own "Quit") it's highly possible that it behaves wierd when restarted.

If you go to sleep before midnight and turn off your PC, you should have no problem!

As for manual editing of registry, I thought that would be the easiest way to keep it as compact as possible. I apologise if it confused you.

Thanks a lot for your comments!

ken - I have very little idea as to how to make a program, but this is how i have seen settings changed in other similar apps:

• ~ a .ini file is placed in the same directory as the app
  ~ when the program is run, it updates settings from the ini file, and does all the usual stuff
  

this is more user friendly - im happy with the app as it is, but maybe you could try something like that when you get time.
