Desktop program: Luach (Linux version)
Kosherdev.com advised me a program for Desktop to see zmanim time and calendar.
The program is called simply luach and can be obtained from here.
Using Ubuntu at home, I downloaded firstly deb package. On my Ubuntu 9.10 it got installed without any problems.
After installation, there appears a nice icon in menu:
clicking the program’s menu shows actually the program: 
What I have to say about this program. There a some really good points and some which I don’t like.
I will start with critics:
1. Window can be resized only to minimum width 1050px. With my laptop maximum width 1024px – it cuts the edges.
2. Only Hebrew. There is no other localizations for this program. Hope it is only temporary problem, which will be solved in future.
Now, good points:
1. The best thing is such program exists.
2. Simplicity of usage. As for me One-Button-interface is the best thing you can design for User Interface. So, the developers of Luach did their best to make UI simple and light.
3. Wow-effect is not fully obtained, but still program is pretty and smart. All these clicking on dates – look nice.
Linux program version is lower that Win32 one. So, in other review I am going to install Win32 version.
