ToDo


This page contains a list of features that have been requested by users as well as bug fixes.  Some of these will make it into the next version, some may not.  Which of these make it into the next version is based on the difficulty of implementation relative to my skill level.  These items are listed in no particular order and may very well not make a lot of sense, since it is primarily aimed at reminding me of things users have requested.
