Cultured Code has updated its task management software Things to version 1.4.3. New in this incremental release is a Quick Entry preference that lets you choose either Inbox or Today as the default destination for newly entered tasks. Other varied improvements are included, too: tasks now show their creation and last modified dates, Projects and Areas can be sorted alphabetically, font-size changes now also affect the Tags window, and handling of non-ASCII characters in email subjects works better.

The Things update also packs in a few fixes, addressing an issue with using Quick Entry in combination with Mac OS X Spaces, a problem where they keyboard shortcut for emptying the Trash would erroneously also delete the currently selected task, and various Logbook issues. ($49.95 new, free update, 8 MB)
