|  | Posted: Mar. 15 2008,14:45 |  |  More minor changes. The Tabs were replaced by Fl_Wizard. This allows the previously offscreen buttons to be used onscreen so there is only one control for switching tabs. This also gave me a way to display the last update time in the bottom right instead of printing it every time a new info is loaded.
 
 The date check now uses murgaLua builtins instead of running ls | awk in a separate process.
 
 Removed the 5-pixel gap between the text fields and the top/bottom widgets.
