No need to do so on my account. With the way I'm working on this, a reason to methodically review each page is helpful, and I don't encounter the bug often enough to be a problem. 

Thank you though. 

And thank you in general. This software is amazing. I can't express how much it has helped me get organized in this research that has sprawled across several years and thousands of pages of reference material. It has breathed new life into a passion project I was afraid was too big for me to handle. I don't know how or why you pour so much work into it, but I am profoundly grateful.
