Vector Clocks

A set of nice looking, highly customizable, desktop clocks with alarm capability.

As far as I can tell they are portable in design, storing all settings in a hidden file in the application folder. However I do not know if they are .NET dependent. I ask that someone else look at them.

I'm going to try to do that more often so if someone else uses our screenshots, we get free advertising.

I found that the clocks are no longer portable by default, but require you to create a .portable file in the program directory. Here is a response I got from the author:

"By default, it stores settings in Registry (HKCU\Software\CrossGL\...).

But, when you create an empty file with name of exe
and extenstion ".portable", it will store settings along
in file with ".config" extension.

For example:

VectorClock-Roman-Gears.exe
VectorClock-Roman-Gears.portable (empty file, just to instruct exe to go portable)
VectorClock-Roman-Gears.config (created by exe)"

Would someone please update the description?
