Hi Markus and the group,

   yes, I am aware of a couple of bugs present in the distributed version
of Argo.
One is an infrequent hang caused by a memory leak, the second is  what you
describe, 
i.e.  an erroneous writing of the peak value in the upper left corner of
the desktop,
caused by a timing glitch between different threads.

Both have been corrected, but I haven't distributed the updated version yet,
as I 
was intending to do some other modifications as well, but then it was all
left in
a suspended-animation status, due to a variety of reasons, whose list is
of
no relevance here. 

I am intending to resurrect that project, at least up to the point of releasing
a version with those errors corrected. Just give me a couple of weeks.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
