🎄🎁

General:

• Added Japanese language support.
  • Thank you @nihongo-helper0119 for providing the Japanese translation.
• Added the ability to manually set the user interface language.
  • GBM will use your operating system language by default.
  • The Settings -> User Interface panel now allows you to choose from any of the available languages.
• Added the ability to run GBM in a fully portable mode.
  • In portable mode, GBM will store all user and temporary data in the same location as the app instead of using the user's OS profile folder.
  • You must have write permissions to the application folder for GBM to start in portable mode.
  • GBM does not automatically move any of your existing data when switching between normal mode and portable mode.
  • To enable portable mode:
    • Run the "Toggle Portable Mode" script in the application folder, then start GBM.
      • "Toggle Portable Mode.bat" is for Windows and "Toggle Portable Mode.sh" is for Linux.
    • You can also manually create an empty file named "portable.ini" (case-sensitive depending on the OS) in the application folder to enable portable mode.
      • Delete the "portable.ini" file to return to normal mode.
  • A new indicator on the main window status bar shows which mode you are currently in.
  • The installer packages aren't meant for use with portable mode and do not include the toggle scripts.
• Changed how GBM starts linked processes.
  • You can now set a start-up delay for each linkable process in the Process Manager.
  • Processes are now started on a seperate thread.
• Updated the Start-Up Wizard.
  • You can now choose the UI language on the first step.
  • The application folder is suggested as a default backup location if running in portable mode.
• Fixed some long standing issues with GBM's initialization sequence.
• Changed the size of some controls and forms to better support multiple languages.
• Updated Components
  • YamlDotNet 16.1.3 -> 16.3.0
  • SQLite 3.50.2 -> 3.50.4 (Windows)
  • 7-Zip 25.00 -> 25.01 (Windows)

Known Issues:

• GBM may not properly display characters for a language that does not match the current desktop language while running in Mono (Linux). To resolve this issue:
  • Set the LANG environment variable to the language you wish to use before running GBM. Ex. LANG=ja_JP.utf-8
  • Ensure you have a language/font package installed for the language you wish to use.
  • Set your desktop language to the language you wish to use in GBM.
  • Consult the documentation for your desktop/linux distribution for more help.
• Some buttons and/or other controls still appear in English while GBM is set to another language. To resolve this issue:
  • Set your operating system/desktop language to the language you wish to use in GBM.
