Good thing!
But editor "Configuration file" is not convenient.
If can add "Add Function" will be better.

First all thanks for a great small birthday application but there is a Small issue sometimes it does not work out the age correctly (e.g if you were born 4th july 2007 the program shows me a age of 1 but it should be 2) other than this the application is great
