That's was my little program called TimeKeeper.  I believe I sent it to
Info-Mac and/or comp.binaries.mac, but I haven't seen it show up as of yet.
(I have also uploaded it to some local BBS's.)

Any Mac can have windows of any shape.  The shape is simply defind by an
apprpriate region.  The circular window that TimeKeeper uses is implemented
with a resource that can be copied and pasted into any application that
wants circular windows.
