In "lang" folder, language files (tclang*.txt, tcmenu*.txt) are put. TClock Light checks language setting of Windows, reads language files, and changes text of menu and dialog. For example, in case of French, tclang-fr.txt and tcmenu-fr.txt are used.

You can move your language files to folder where tclock.exe is.

And you can customize right-click menu of TClock Light by editing tcmenu*.txt.

INI file

TClock Light creates tclock.ini automatically, and keeps user setting in it.

Registry

TClock creates the following key in registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kazubon\TClock

TClock Light uses INI file to keep settings, but creates this key, too.
