Shakespeare

We fixed a few small bugs and small improvements to make your Shakespearean life a little better. :) Did you catch the recent update? We made the historical editions (folios, quartos, octavos) the main focus, including: • NEW!

Scene markers: most historical editions don't have act/scene divisions, but they now have markers where modern act/scene divisions are to help you navigate • NEW! Updated scene menu: historical editions now have full act/scene list for navigation (see the Help section to understand the format) • NEW!
