Here are the latest updates to QuickNotes:

- The DIR command -- which was basically just a stub before -- has been substantially reworked. DIR command usage now follows Windows syntax, with most if not all of the familiar command-line options: /A[:][-]DHR, /B, /O[:][-]NESD, /S, etc. Directory listings are sent to an *interactive* text dialog: pressing Enter on a directory name switches to that directory and lists its files, Enter on a filename opens the file for editing.

- There is a new HISTORY command, which lists the command history in an interactive text dialog. Two modifiers are supported: HISTORY <number>, to display the last <number> commands, and HISTORY "substring", to list all commands that contain "substring" (these optionstes the command.

- You can now set left and right margins for the editor pane and Markdown preview. "Options -> Margin offset" or command `OF n`, where n is the offset in characters. New special variable $OF returns the current offset setting.

- The crash associated with "Options -> Auto-hide menu bar" has been fixed. The Alt-key toggle has been reworked so as not to step on Alt+<key> combinations.
