Martin, thanks for the feedback. When a newer .deb is released, all you
have to do is install it. It should overwrite the files of any older
versions. As far as adding check-marks to the context menu, it's a
possibility for a future version. I understand what you are asking for, and
while I agree it makes perfect sense, it's a bit tricky to implement the way
it's coded. But we'll keep it on the list.

Thanks,
-Jonathan
