I vividly remember the Scherzo theme; who could erase that memory? ;)

We emailed Greg and Arlo (authors of the classic Kaleidoscope) to see if they were cool with us repurposing the name and they were, you'll find their names in our app's About window.

The web site of that program is kaleidoscope.net...it doesn't seem to have a Mac OS X version.
