Task Till Dawn 1.7 released

Here it is - Task Till Dawn 1.7. This version brings some important bugfixes and some useful new features as well.

These are all changes made since the last version:

New features
Task Till Dawn can now wait for a task (application) to quit.
On the Mac, new instances of an application can be started if needed.
New option on the Mac to start applications in the background. This is experimental and does not work well with all types of applications.
Notifications can now be spoken on the Mac using the systems build in text to speech functionality.

Enhancements
On Windows, Growl notifications now even work when Growl was started after Task Till Dawn.

Bugs fixed
Delayed task execution is now more accurate.
The flag "execute only once" was not correctly migrated from version 1.5 to 1.6.
Fixed a bug which could cause tasks to get lost.
Fixed a bug where Task Till Dawn would hang on Windows shutdown (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7071160).

Thanks for the continued development, I had a home-brewed mix of Automator actions and AppleScript which kinda worked sometimes: this seems much better.

Cheers,
David.

Hi Dimmer and Oliver

I'd love to see some examples of what you guys are doing with Task Till Dawn
(for inspiration)

If you can make a Youtube screen recording it would even be better.
Anycase, Im over at Twitter on @LouisinLondon if you want to let me know.
(I don't check back on comment posts as often as I should...)

Ich finde das Programm recht gut, vermisst habe ich eine ausführlichere Hilfe und die Funktion, um die es mir eigentlich geht: Ich möchte ein Programm z.B. zehn Minuten oder 5 Minuten nach Start des Rechners starten.
