Konfabulator 1.5 released; includes new JavaScript engine

Konfabulator 1.5 is update to the system utility for Mac OS X. Widgets can now support drag and drop, direct text input, track of mouse events, keyboard events, and can be integrated with the desktop: behind or floating.

Konfabulator 1.5 adds over 200 new features, including weather forecasts, drag & drop support for Picture Frame, and unlimited stock symbol support. Konfabulator is a JavaScript runtime engine that uses modules (see Widget Gallery) to perform virtually any system or other scripting function.

With Konfabulator, MacDailyNews headlines can come straight to your desktop! You can set the Widget’s Preferences to display 1-15 of the latest headlines and set the transparency level from 0-255. Just Control-Click anywhere on the Windget to access the Widget preferences. We’ve also included a handy date and time display.

The MacDailyNews v1.0 Widget is just 78KB, requires Konfabulator, and can be found here.
