Today

Today is an application to list events that have taken place (or will take place) on a given date. It contains a database of information, to which additional dates and personal anniversaries can be added.
The application was originally written by James Miskin, and the 32-bit update has been carried out by myself. Bug reports should now be directed to me, using the contact details in the download archive.Today showing some of the events on the 5th February
