INTRODUCTION
============
Arieel is a state of the art clock, calendar and info-tool that
gives you access to the current time of the over 200 countries and regions
of our world. It implements all aspects of timezones including day light saving.
While it shows that foreign time it still displays the local time in a corner.
The daylight indicator gives you an impression if it is daylight saving active in
that foreign city.
It's excellent implementation and elegant appearance makes it a tool you
would not like to miss.
The World Explorer supplies you with substantial information in an ever changing world.
It shows you the location of cities and countries on a world map with other basic
information like the countries flag, common languages, currency information,
telexing access numbers, the current local time, time zone and active DST rule.
The excellent calendar gives you accurate all time legal holiday information of
your? and of 24 other countries. So you can check when it is good Friday in 2001.
You don't miss an alarm.
And of course every thing must be as configurable as possible
and support a lot of national setting and a hole bunch of languages.
Configurable thru the system setup where this could be done or
thru the preference dialog or command line parameters.
NOTE: Just press F1 to get help from any dialogs in Arieel..
