Version 2.5.8:

Architecture changes:
CCI 2.5.8 can only be installed on Mac OS X 10.6 ("Snow Leopard") and Mac OS X 10.7 ("Lion"). Support for Lion, while not as extensive as that for Snow Leopard, is much improved over 2.5.7.2.
CCI no longer requires SIMBL, and it no longer uses the InputManager plugin. It is now installed as part of the MarsThemes framework, where it runs as a plugin for the new MarsThemes Loader software.
A new MarsThemes Agent program watches application launch events and automatically loads CCI into applications that can use CCI's functionality.
With the new MarsThemes Loader software, it will be possible to allow CCI and Crystal Black - as well as any future MarsThemes plugins - to be installed and used simultaneously.
New features:
All applications on both Snow Leopard and Lion can now have their name replaced by their icon in the main menubar.
Users can now hide the Crystal Menubar if they choose. The option is in the Extras-Graphics tab.
CCI now themes the ruler view in RTF editing applications, and adopts Crystal Black's code for theming buttons in the Font Panel.
Users can now uninstall, as well as install, third-party Crystal Docs icons from the CCI Prefs Panel. In addition, CCI's uninstaller program now offers to remove any Crystal Docs icon sets the user has installed.
Enhancements:
This release updates the application graphics installed for Safari and iWork, for compatibility with changes Apple introduced in July 2011.
CCI now automatically loads into the LoginWindow process, as well as other system processes that generate alert windows - including User Notifications and Authentications.
CCI now supports "agent" (typically running in the system menubar) applications that use 64-bit memory. Examples of agents that run natively with 64-bit memory are Hazel, CoverSutra, and MenuCalendarClock for iCal.
CCI now automatically changes the eject button in Finder to provide appropriate contrast color when the outline view background changes.
With the new architecture, the ResetFinder application, which in prior versions launched on each login, is eliminated.
Expanded the set of outline and tableviews that can support dark backgrounds with white text. Examples are Activity Monitor and System Preferences.
Bug fixes (on Mac OS X 10.6):
The Finder's eject button works again.
Prevents use of the CCI 2.5.8 uninstaller to uninstall prior versions of the software. Doing so could cause the uninstall process to fail or perform incompletely.
Fixes a bug that prevented the "Check for Updates" sheet in CCI's System Preferences panel from working.
