- -- What is new --
-
- + Auto-update routines for updating once-a-day at first start-up of program.
- + Extra parameter '/update' for only updating the currency and then exit.
- - Removed some bugs / cleaned up the code a small bit.
- - Removed updated-since functions from program again...
-
- -- To do --
-
- + Bugfix for 'Error: 200 OK'
- HTTP 200 means it is succesful, so it shouldn't generate an error
- + A check for new versions of the converter itself.
-
- And perhaps even:
- + Look at linking the Euro currency to the Euroland currencies of Pacific
- Editing Pacific-European Euro will not cause linked currencies to update.
- + Look at the use of threading for updating of the currencies and/or the listview
