Hi thanks for the feedback. I will try to use the py2app application. If the binary version doesn't work, you also do a standard python installation ( http://gmvault.org/install.html#py_install ).

Thanks for the feedback. I have not tested deployment on Vista but on WinXP and Win7. You didn't need to be an admin as far as I saw. The integration in the menu,showing up in the installed program as well as uninstall is in the version 1.1

It is nice but you would like to have the possibility to choose your own towns. Often for example I want to know what time it is in Seattle compared to the time in Frankfurt where I live. If it can be customized, it will be a great tool. F

Would be good to have a standard ssh client similar to the ones in linux and other unixes. I use Cygwin mainly for that. I do not want to do putty -ssh ... and I want to copy my keys and other config in ~/.ssh. Like that I can "standardize"
