Sol 1.3.4

SUNRISE AND SUNSET DASHBOARD WIDGET

Sol is a Dashboard widget that tells you what time sunrise and sunset are, as well as dawn and dusk.

The analog display is a 24-hour clock, with noon at the top and midnight at the bottom. The dark region is nighttime, the light part is daytime, and the slivers in between are dawn and dusk. (Or, for the technically inclined, they are civil twilight.)

About the Apple - Downloads - Dashboard Listing

Apparently shortly after the release of the Mac App Store (with Mac OS X version 10.6.6 on 2011-01-06), it became impossible to submit any further updates to the Apple - Downloads - Dashboard site. As a result, downloading the Sol widget from there (Sol can be found in the Information category) is now stuck permanently pointing to the Sol-1.3.1.wdgt.zip download. For this reason, the Sol-1.3.1.wdgt.zip download has actually been replaced with the most recent Sol version (currently 1.3.4) as of the time (2014-01-15) that the ability to update these downloads was disabled.
