1.1.3

J-Ben 1.1.3
* Major under-the-hood changes.
  * Dictionary objects have been renamed and modified for future support of
    multiple kanji/word dictionary files.
  * Dictionary files now implemented as singletons.
  * Almost all code not tied to wxWidgets GUI functionality has had all
    references to wxWidgets code removed.  This will better allow changes
    in the GUI, including changing toolkits, in the future.
  * Encoding conversions and multichar/wchar conversions via libiconv instead
    of wxCSConv.
  * New functions for converting between wide/multibyte strings, for replacing
    substrings, and for splitting strings into list<strings> based on
    delimiters.
  * Preferences object now loads config files based upon the user's home
    directory, or the current directory in the (rare) case a home folder
    cannot be found.
  * Errors are handled through a global ErrorLog object.  This object
    maintains a log of errors, warnings, and informative messages given to the
    user while running the program, and can also store "silent" messages which
    are only seen when explicitly queried.
* Windows-specific changes:
  * MinGW's current stable GCC does not have full wide character support in
    libstdc++.  So, I've switched to using STLport, which although it seems to
    have some issues when running its unit tests, it does seem to at least
    work for my purposes for now.
* Major makefile changes.
  * Build files are now stored in dep, obj, and bin folders, further broken
    down into platform (gtk20/windos) and build type (release/debug).  This
    allows us to keep the source directory cleaner and to not have multiple
    builds walking over each other.
  * kpengine now has its own Makefile in the kanjipad directory, which is
    called in turn from the main Makefile.
  * For Linux: the Makefile now operates in a more "traditional" fashion.
    "make install" works: binaries go to /usr/local/bin, data to
    /usr/local/share/jben and docs/license stuff to /usr/local/share/doc/jben.
    Custom prefix can be specified (ex: /usr instead of /usr/local).
  * For Windows: the Makefile now depends on NSIS and 7-Zip being reachable
    from the path, but now "make install" will build an EXE installer and
    auto-archive .7z and .zip binary folders.
* DocBook-based manual written.  It currently reflects version 1.1.2, but this
  is acceptable since the UI has not really changed.
* The doc directory in the J-Ben source archives also contains a .dia file
  showing a general outline of how J-Ben's source code is structured.
