2.Code Explanation

This is a menubar app which shows a simple chinese lunar calendar for OSX.

There are two different implementations for this app:

2.1. WanNianLi

this project is using the official NSStatusItem to implement the menubar app. Its posittion in the icon bar can't be moved.

2.2. CLCLauncher + CLCMenuExtra

these two projects are using the un-official NSMenuExtra (hacking way) to implement the menubar app. The calendar icon works in the same way with system's icon. You can use CMD+Drag to move it or remove it.

CLCLauncher: this project is a agent application, which launch "MenuCracker.menu" & "CLCMenuExtra.menu"

It dependens on MenuCracker.menu and CLCMenuExtra.menu (these two bundles will be packed into CLCLauncher.app as resources)

CLCMenuExtra: this project finishs the actual functionality. this bundle is using un-official NSMenuExtra API.
