@L0garithmic : what was @dark-knight404 specifically asked to implement? Was the name change part of the spec, or his own idea?

Hey. Yeah. Figured I'd give it to you since you're way better at this then me and I felt like a poser hanging it under my name haha.

OK so. The history is. CBXShell was first. I found it on github. It was old. Dated. Didn't do what I needed. So. I went on freelancer.com and made an open request for a coder to make CBXShell function with epubs.

https://www.freelancer.com/projects/cplusplus-programming/Edits-github-project-EPUB-Thumbnails/details. This is the actual request for work lol. Dark Knight took on the work. Made it function as necessary. Then made the github and transferred it to me.

Since I cannot code C++ at all lol. It seemed best to just transfer it to you
