EarthDesk replaces your static desktop picture with an animated, real-time
rendered image of the Earth, continuously updating in the background while
you work. The software supports eleven different map projections, political
and satellite views, and renders accurate sun, moon and city lighting.

Major changes in version 2.0:

- Vastly improved performance and efficiency with preemptive multitasking.
- Complete multi-display support - a different map on each screen.
- Significantly higher quality twilight shading.

Fixes in 2.0.1:

- Fixed a bug that could prevent evaluation under MacOS X 10.1.5.
- Fixed a potential crash in the Robinson map at zoom levels under 100%.
- Desktop pictures which are tiled patterns are now restored properly.
- Correctly restores desktops which change pictures periodically.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the license key to not be saved.
- If the application file is renamed, it will no longer fail to launch.
- Changed the command for "Set Home Location" from Cmd-H to Cmd-L.

EarthDesk requires a Macintosh computer with MacOS 9.1+ or MacOS X 10.1+.
