Changelog

About the word „crash“: When reading this changelog, you might be alarmed at the number of fixes
+for „crashes“. Be aware that when the word „crash“ is used here, it refers to „soft crashes“ which
+don’t cause the application to quit. You simply get an error window that asks you if you want to
+send the crash report to Hardcoded Software. Crashes that cause the application to quit are called
+„hard crashes“ in this changelog.
