StimuWrite 2.3 is here!

StimuWrite 2.3 is here, please update your version! I worked hard on this version to add a bunch of new features and improvements, the most exciting of which is the Addon System and Manage Themes & Addons panel! Previously, the only addons available where to add new language fonts, but that will change soon. I've already completed a couple addons that will be launching on itchio very shortly that you will be able to use to extended StimuWrite even further. The app should also be FASTER and more performant! If it's noticeable for you please let me know, I would love that.

The updates

New:

• New Manage Themes & Addons panel allows users to delete individual themes and addons, this can be found in the Options menu. No more deleting everything to remove or reinstall one theme!
• New compact mode that can be activated once the side panel is closed with the notch button next to the word count goal input
• 7 new heart colors added in Emoji Options, they go great with the free pride themes!
• Addon system and menu bar. Addons coming! Once installed, you will be able to find them in a collapsed menu on the bottom left corner of the app (or the right if you have switched the emoji placement)

Improved:

• Your work is automatically exported upon closing the program, if you've selected an export folder
• Improvements to the custom emoji interface to make it more clear wtf is going on
• Delete all settings and files button actually deletes everything and puts the themes and addons in system trash instead of permanently deleting them
• Rich text export now exports HTML files instead of markdown files (just rename your txt files to get markdown files instead)
• Lots of performance optimizations to make it FASTER! SNAPPIER! (please please please let me know if it's running better for you lol)

Bug fixes:

• Multiple bugs fixed with unexpected custom/theme emoji behavior
• Bug fixed where text was sometimes cut off when changing font or increasing it's size
• Bug fixed where double dashes weren't being converted to em dash if typing middle of text
• Bug fixed where words weren't being counted when typing in the middle of a document
• Bug fixed where stimuwrite would accept gamepad inputs
  

How to enter "Compact Mode"

The new "compact mode" is a little hidden, so here's a visual aid on how to find it. This will be even more useful with the introduction of addons :)
