New:

- Settings: Changing a bunch of settings is now possible. Customize tone colours of Jyutping and Pinyin, whether to display simplified or traditional Chinese, and more.
- Add and remove dictionaries: You can now add CFDICT and HanDeDict to the database to be searched! More dictionaries to come later, as time permits.
- Localization: The application is now translated to French (CA), French, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Cantonese, and Traditional Cantonese. Interface language can be customized under settings.
- Manual update checking: A manual update check can be triggered from under the "Help" menu item.

Improvements:

- Improved dictionary: Some entries were missing Jyutping previously, which has now been fixed.
- Better fonts on Windows: The application by default uses Microsoft YaHei to display Chinese characters as much as possible.

Known issues:

- Not tested for non-Ubuntu Linux Distros: 🤷‍♂️
- Not working on Ubuntu 16.04: The non-portable version of the program does not work on Ubuntu 16.04, due to the old pre-installed version of the SQLite driver not being compatible with FTS5. However, since the AppImage bundles in frameworks and libraries, that does work on 16.04.
