As always, here is what has changed:

New features
Task Till Dawn is now GPL!
French translations added (thanks to Michel Tribet).
Growl notification support for Windows added.
Maximum task execution count can now be set.
It is now possible to disable a task instead of deleting it after maximum execution count has been reached.
Tasks can now be executed on application startup.
Extended network settings with proxy support.

Enhancements
Delayed tasks are now canceled when application shuts down.
Improved task configuration dialog user interface.

Bugs fixed
Fixed a bug causing tasks to be executed multiple times when restarting Task Till Dawn.
Fixed some problems with the user interface not being refreshed correctly.
The filechooser now stays in front of the task-configuration dialog.
Removed tooltip of the menu-item on Mac OS X.
Fixed a bug in the preferences window which sometimes caused settings to be reverted.

Hi! I'm using Task Till Dawn to launch an app on a daily basis. There are days when this app will execute for a very long time - it can sometimes take several days to run. On those occaisions, is there a way that I can prevent Task Till Dawn from kicking off another execution of the same code - that is, if it is still running, don't launch another?

Hi Karen,

thank you for your feedback regarding Task Till Dawn! It is currently not possible to prevent a task from being executed while another instance of the same task is already running.
But the next version of Task Till Dawn (1.7) will have an option for that.

Best regards,
Oliver Matuschin
