**Features**
|

|
||||
* A new dialog has been added to the Help menu for checking for new updates. It will only check for
|
||||
full releases, not pre-releases. The updates are not installed automatically, but a link to the
|
||||
website is provided. PR #863.
|
||||
|
||||
**Other Changes**
|
||||
|
||||
* The grey Typicons themes have been removed. The Typicons colour themes have also been renamed.
|
||||
The user configuration will update the theme setting to replace the grey icon theme for dark or
|
||||
light background automatically. PR #869.
|
||||
|
||||
**Internationalisation**
|
||||
|
||||
* The US English and Nowregian translation files have been updated. PR #870.
|
||||
|
||||
**Documentation**
|
||||
|
||||
* The Windows Setup section of the documentation has been updated and simplified. PR #865.
|
||||
|
||||
**Code Improvements**
|
||||
|
||||
* The novelWriter main package folder has been renamed from `nw` to `novelwriter`. This will make
|
||||
it easier to create packages for novelWriter at a later stage. Especially packages which will
|
||||
require adding the main source files to the Python install location. PR #868.
