GrandPerspective 2.5.4 has been released and is available for download from Sourceforge. It features only one change but a notable one. After fifteen years, there's a new icon; it complies with the new Big Sur guidelines. I hope you like it. For those that liked the old icon, fear not, it's still used as a logo at various places.
