News

I am assuming the original author has given up on this project, as I myself forked it and began working on it over a year ago (and also promptly disappeared from the project) and there have been no updates since. I'll do my best to get this working again on all platforms, but I cannot make any promises. I'll likely take the existing GUI and rebuild it using libraries I'm familiar with, and build new logic to go in the back end as well. Keep an eye out for updates.
