This file could also be called the change log.

- Fixed "Add City" name parsing.
- Move weather link for alerts to beginning of message. If message was texted and city name was long, link was getting broken.
- Fix ZIP for "Add City" search.

v1.1.8
- Re-aranged the preferences in a much clear way (thanks for the mock ups Joshua Ochs!)

- "Bad" info will no longer be displayed... really.
- One cavet to the above: the temperature always has to be displayed (so it will show up as N/A)
- If valid data use to exist, new data which is corrupt will be discarded and the meteo icon will be given a red hue... really.
- Preference changes now have to be applied by pushing a button - this helps out slower systems that couldn't handle applying preferences each time one was changed
- Made preference layout cleaner, while making the Update tab seem more naked (what else can I put there?)

v1.1.6

- Even more, and higher quality, icons where added, accounting for the increase in size of the download

- Added better handling of bad data, hopefully preventing some of the crashes users have been seeing
- Meteo will now load local images instead of the ugly weather.com images... as soon as there are images - I have a few people volunteering their time, but please be patient, as there are over 40 images to make in people's free time
- Added new, spiffy image for Meteo, created by Flavio Andrade.  Thanks a ton!
- Added preference validation routine which should make it unneccessary to ever trash your preferences again
- Bug in "dock mode" that prevents active location from being represented with a check mark in the "Location Switcher" menu has been noted - it's an Apple thing, I have no control over this behavior.  This also prevents images from being displayed in the dock menu.
- Added tool tip to menu bar - holding the mouse over Meto in the menu bar will now display a little yellow box indicating the location of the currently active city
- Local images for the menu's and menu bar are of size 16 by 16, and for the dock icon are of size 128 by 128 (when local images become available)
- Added better centering for different sizes and menu fonts (it's not perfect - some fonts will simply not look good)
- Made LucidaGrande size 14 the default menu font
- Meteo icon will now be displayed in the dock icon or menu bar if no image can be found for the current weather

- Added preference to not show degree symbols after temperatures
- Added instructions on how to run multiple versions of meteo that will display different cities
