Hi Chip,
Yes, it is fixed now, I made the mistake in version 3.2, so anyone that
downloaded that one has got to remove everything related to cuckoo clock, both
versions. Then download the new 3.3 version.
I tested it by going back to 3.1 and once I asked to check for update the
3.3 got listed.
I also changed the email in the help menu, removed my old email address and
just changed it to anyone. The next update will allow a person to make an
address book, stored on the .ini file so anyone can email anyone via the Cuckoo
clock program help menu by name.
Who knows, maybe even receive emails and stored on a menu...an interesting
thought.

Bruce,
The problem with the update is that the package name internal to the .wepm
file for version 3.2 is cuckoo_clock_32, while the internal package name for
the .wepm file for version 3.3 is just cuckoo_clock, so WE and appGet is seeing
it as two different packages.
And, this is indeed what happened to me: when I installed version 3.3 it did
not uninstall version 3.2, leaving me with two copies running.
This is going to be a hard one to fix.

Hi Chip,
I tried replying to this email and it was sent back, saying it was too
long. So I had to delete all other stuff before this email.
I had noticed that last night when updating my Windows 7 computer that
the cuckoo clock was not listed for update.
I also checked and discovered the flag for notifying others is in fact
checked at the web site end. Don't know why, but apparently that check box is
not working, at least for the cuckoo Clock app.
I guess I will have to write to Aaron and see what is going on.
Sincerely
Bruce

Thanks Bruce.
You may want to ask GW for some help with your update, for whatever reason,
but Window-Eyes through the add/remove apps dialog, and when using apGet,
neither of these show your latest upload as an update to the cuckoo clock
program. I don't have any ideas as to what is causing this, but to try to see
it for yourself, reinstall your 3.2 version and then use WE or appGet to see if
there are updates.
This means though, assuming it's happening to everyone, that people won't
be made aware that you've updated the program.
Thanks.
Chip
