Update Description:
v1.0.1:
* Bug fix: When an error has occured the default dialog after a reset is now the mainscreen. Should prevent reset loops.
* Bug fix: Added an error handling routine in import from tool dialog to prevent a reset when no import database was found.
* Bug fix: When updating from a card box older than one version sometimes the last step was skipped.
* Bug fix: When an info/edit dialog is called from incomplete/marked/search dialog and then the program is exited the return path was not defined. To be secure now the return path is always the main screen.
* Bug fix: Update card box and preferences skipped sometimes profiles. Backport from 1.1.2.
* Bug fix: When a card currently in a drill lesson was edited to "incomplete" the card was not removed from the drill loop. Now it will be detected and replaced.
* New feature: Changed the words and stats struct for future card tag support.
* New feature: Changed gender and set dict info routine to prevent altering of card tags when a database from a 1.1.x beta is used.
* Translation fixes.
