The latest release of Time Out is version 1.5.4.

• Replaced the use of an undocumented routine to check the idle time with an approved one, to fix compatibility with Snow Leopard.
• Updated the bundled Adium scripts to support the current versions of the Adium instant messaging client, thanks to Nic Munroe. Note: if you used a previous version of Time Out, the scripts won't be replaced, in case you've customized them. You can download the updated scripts from the Time Out Extras site.
• Fixed an issue with the Preferences window, where edits might not be saved when quitting with the window still open (specifically when an edit is still active).
• Removed the old crash reporter, since it doesn't support Leopard crash logs.
• Now requires a minimum of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).

• Improved the idle detection when the computer was sleeping.
• Added a hidden preference to output debug information about scheduling and idle detection to the Console log. It can be activated by entering "defaults write com.dejal.timeout DebugScheduler YES" in Terminal. You shouldn't turn this on unless you think Time Out isn't working properly, as it outputs quite a lot of information.
• Fixed a cosmetic bug with the Check for Updates feature when using a general release and wanting only general releases, and a beta release is available.

• Added support for Spaces in Leopard; the break now appears on all Spaces, even if you switch Spaces mid-break.
• Enhanced the URLs for the Help menu to better support localization.
• Switched the distribution method to ZIP archives instead of disk images, as it's simpler for everyone. Feedback welcome!

• Fixed a bug that caused the Pause Breaks and Reset Breaks commands to remain disabled.
• Changed the Begin Micro Break command to work if you postponed a Normal break and the Normal break is due very soon; the overlap avoidance feature is inappropriate for manually started breaks.

• Introduced a much nicer application icon, professionally designed by Emily Pfeifer.
• Rearranged the break contents: the progress bar and buttons are now in a box, and the icon is bigger... and prettier. :)
• Added options to the Appearance page to individually show or hide the Postpone and Skip buttons, and to change the number of minutes for the two Postpone ones.
• Added direct support for running Python scripts.
• Fixed some issues with scheduling breaks after postponing.
• The Dejal logo was also redesigned by Emily Pfeifer, so all places it occurred have been updated.
• Renamed the application to remove the exclamation point.
• Added improved exception logging, to help with diagnosing any future issues.
• Added the Dejal Blog and Forums to Help menu.
• Fixed an error that a few people experienced when checking for updates.
• Minor tweaks for Leopard (10.5) compatibility.
