+CHANGES
+=======
+**v4.4.2 (2014-Jul-11):**
+* Dropped privilege requirement from Administrator to AsInvoker.
+
+**v4.4.1 (2014-Jul-07):**
+* Alert the user if one of the hotkeys is already registered globally and
+  that the hotkey will be skipped by Snip.
+  * This is a temporary solution for some silent crashes until I can
+    implement custom hotkeys.
+
+**v4.4.0 (2014-Jul-07):**
+* Added version number to context menu.
+* A message will now appear asking the user to exit iTunes if there is an
+  issue loading the iTunes COM library.
+* Fixed issue with not saving information if artwork is missing in iTunes.
+* Added option to enable/disable hotkeys.
+* Added an option to save text that no track is playing.
+* Automated resgen usage to generate .resources files automatically.
+* Removed signing from project and placed it in a separate external script.
+
+**v4.3.1 (2014-Jul-03):**
+* Added some exception catching to hopefully narrow down some issues.
+
+**v4.3.0 (2014-May-25):**
+* Added Swedish translation thanks to Lukas Michanek.
+* Fixed missing leading space on separator.
+* Added minimal debugging support.
+
+**v4.1.0 (2014-Apr-26):**
+* Settings and defaults consolidated and made more consistent.
+* Window messages moved to own enum.
+* Complete change in hotkey functionality.  Changed from 1ms timer to events.
+  * Hotkey timer deleted as well as two classes.
+* Replaced GetAsyncKeyState() with RegisterHotKey() and UnregisterHotKey().
+
+**v4.0.3 (2014-Apr-19):**
+* Fixed crash when image file was in use and Snip tried to overwrite it.
+* Removed some unnecessary code.
+* Switched to an even smaller 1x1 transparent PNG for failed artwork.
+* Fixed settings not truly having a default whenever a new version is ran.
+* Switching media players now overwrites the artwork with a blank image.
+* Fixed crash when switching from iTunes to another player and then
+  manipulating iTunes.
+
+**v4.0.1 (2014-Apr-11):**
+* Caught exception when ws.spotify.com couldn't be resolved. This fixes
+  #10 <https://github.com/dlrudie/Snip/issues/10> by catching the exception
+  thrown when ws.spotify.com could not be resolved.  In the case the name
+  cannot be resolved then a blank image will be saved in its place.
+* Remove unnecessary code related to saving album artwork to disk.  Hopefully
+  this fixes #9 <https://github.com/dlrudie/Snip/issues/9>.
+
+**v4.0.0 (2014-Mar-02):**
+* foobar2000 will now be detected via exe name instead of window class name.
+* Fixed crash related to invalid JSON.
+* Renamed default strings file to prevent a crash.
+* Major code re-factoring.
+
+**v3.7.0 (2014-Feb-06):**
+* Added support for foobar2000.
+
+**v3.6.0 (2014-Jan-29):**
+* Album artwork for Spotify is now saved by album ID and not track ID.
+* Added a WebException catch that will just save a blank image if an error
+  occurs.
+* Increased the timeout from 5 seconds to 10 seconds.
+* Changed the artwork download to be asynchronous.
+
+**v3.5.0 (2014-Jan-26):**
+* A lot of code was refactored to make the code easier to manage.
+* All warnings from Code Analysis were fixed.
+* Updated AUTHORS.txt
+* Updated Copyright format in all of the files.
+
+**v3.1.0 (2014-Jan-05):**
+* Renamed Cache Spotify Album Artwork to Keep Spotify Album Artwork.
+* Added French translation.  Thanks, MindFlaw!
+* Added Dutch translation.  Thanks, Azeirah!
+* Resized the Output Format form to be wider to accomodate languages that
+  might require more room to display text.
+
+**v3.0.1 (2013-Dec-30):**
+* Manifest file modified to require Administrator rights.
+* Added a link to the project on GitHub to the README.txt file.
+* Updated the strings file with detailed descriptions to hopefully help
+  translators understand what everything is for.
+
+**v3.0.0 (2013-Dec-22):**
+* Added the ability to select album artwork resolution for Spotify.  The
+  default size is Tiny since you really shouldn't need much larger for
+  displaying the image on your stream.  However, the choice is there.
+  * Tiny = 60x60
+  * Small = 120x120
+  * Medium = 300x300
+  * Large = 640x640
+* Strip " - Explicit Album Version" from song titles as it messes up the
+  search results.
+* Rather than take the first result provided from the search with Spotify it
+  will now loop through the results until it finds a title that matches
+  what's playing.  Results are still not 100% because the song title shown
+  inside Spotify isn't always the result you get with their search.
+* StyleCop dropped in favor of Code Analysis built in to MSVC.
+* Unused code removed.
+* Memory leaks fixed.
+* Globalization support added to make it easy to translate and use in
+  languages other than English.  (Feel free to e-mail me about this).
+* Removed warning about the application already running.  It will just not do
+  anything now.
+* Updated SimpleJson to the latest version.
+* Removed user csproj file from repository.
+
+**v2.8.0 (2013-Dec-21):**
+* Snip will download higher resolution album artwork using a more efficient
+  method.  This patch was provided by Kailan Blanks.  Thank you.
+* Added an option to cache Spotify album artwork locally.  If this option is
+  enabled then it will download and save the artwork locally to a separate
+  directory, and then each time that track is played it will use the saved
+  artwork instead of redownloading it.
+* Due to the contribution I added an AUTHORS.txt file.
+* Split structs and classes into regions.
+* I forced the download timeout to 5 seconds so that there's not too much of a
+  wait between the time the album artwork starts downloading and the text
+  file is updated.
+
+**v2.7.0 (Unreleased):**
+* Moved program information to its own class.
+* Moved unsafe native methods to their own class.
+* Made StyleCop mostly happy.
+* Moved key binds to their own class.
+* Moved key states to their own class.
+* Moved media player fields to their own class.
+* Snip.txt empties when no track is playing or other generic information is
+  shown.
+
+**v2.6.0 (2013-Apr-20):**
+* Added SimpleJson as a way to parse json easily.
+* Changed project from .Net Framework 4 Client Profile to .Net Framework 4.
+* Added a reference to System.Web so HttpUtility.UrlEncode() could be used.
+* Changed the way album artwork and track information are discovered with
+  Spotify.  It no longer tries to get the exact track ID within Spotify's
+  memory.  It will now query the Spotify API on the web using the artist
+  name and track title.  If a match is found it will pull the track ID from
+  there and then query the regular Spotify HTML page for artwork.
+* The change above allowed me to remove a lot of unnecessary code, including
+  ReadProcessMemory(), GetWindowThreadProcessId(), and FindInMemory().
+* Removed some unused WindowMessage commands.
+
+**v2.5.0 (2013-Apr-20):**
+* Changed the readonly values to consts and renamed them.
+* Embedded the blank image as a byte array instead of having a separate
+  Snip_Blank.jpg.
+* Created a SaveBlankImage() method that saves the blank image in case of any
+  error.
+* Changed the way I get Spotify album artwork.  It now uses the regular
+  Spotify HTML page instead of the embed page.  This provides a lower
+  resolution image than previously but it works.
+* Added a ImageFromByteArray() method that converts a byte array to an Image.
+
+**v2.0.1 (2013-Jan-17):**
+* Fixed streams in Winamp causing Snip to crash.
+
+**v2.0 (2013-Jan-17):**
+* Prior change in v1.6.5 that I forgot to mention:
+  * Snip now defaults to have most options disabled by default.
+* Winamp support added.
+* Added the ability to save album information (currently only iTunes supports
+  this).
+* Volume up/down hotkeys now work for iTunes.
+* The separator now has spaces and the code no longer inserts its own spaces.
+
+**v1.6.5 (2013-Jan-4):**
+* Fixed a bug preventing output format working with iTunes.
+* Added code to make sure only one instance of Snip can run at once.
+
+**v1.6 (2013-Jan-1):**
+* Added the ability to set a custom output format.
+  * If you save the track and artist information to separate files then make
+    sure the separator that you use does NOT appear in any track or artist
+    title.  If it does then the text will not get separated correctly.
+* Expanded the memory range that Snip searches for the track information.
+
+**v1.5 (2012-Nov-11):**
+* Snip_Artist.txt and Snip_Track.txt will now be written.  These can be used
+  to display the artist or track name in different styles.
+* Added support for saving image artwork.  Spotify's support is rather hacky
+  so it may not always work, or it may cause Spotify to randomly stop
+  playing music.
+
+**v1.1.1 (2012-Sep-14):**
+* Fixed Snip_History.txt to use Environment.NewLine instead of \n.
+
+**v1.1 (2012-Sep-14):**
+* Added support for saving track history.
+  * This will save the history to a new text file called Snip_History.txt.
+
+**v1.0 (2012-Aug-12):**
+* Initial Release
