Version 0.0.6.X:
+ Added 'idle' command (may become a function or remain a command)
+ Added object/entity member access- ex: this.sprite.x or simply sprite.x
+ Fixed several bugs relating to placing sprites in editor (invalidates old .gcs files)
+ "Select All" selects all sprites on a layer, if a sprite tool is active
+ Fixed import of images with alpha
+ Fixed resource, script, etc. names to always be case insensitive
+ Can use 'compile' and 'decompile' in console window with script names containing spaces
+ Added 'void' return type for functions
+ Added some more shortcut keys to common menu items
* Various bug fixes, loose ends, optimizations in scripting language compiler / bytecode / interpreter
* Generalized several code modules (mostly GUI) to share with another project I'm working on
* Fixed precompiled headers to work under Windows or Dev-C++; Haven't adjusted Unix makefile to match
+ GUI tweaks- Color tweaks, scrollbars/sliders depress while held
+ Console commands disabled when inappropriate (gameplay vs editor mode)
* Terminology changes- "Image/Tile Set", "Font", "Animation Group", "Function Library" (not using Library to mean several different things)
(working on rewriting world browser, including context menus, folders, and "new" menu)

Version 0.0.6.1328:
- Resource names are "sometimes" case sensitive still, currently working on it
+ Lots of revamping to the scripting language, bytecode, and compiler (new reference being written as gcs-lang.html- consider all documentation works-in-progress at this time)
+ Added 'debug' command to scripting language to output anything to the debug console
+ Rewrote applicable portions of bytecode compiler- now at same stage it was previously (support for local and global variables of basic types, local functions, expressions, if/else, and do/while/until/break/continue/restart)
+ Proper script parse/compile/link "as needed" and "on demand"; stores bytecode in file if compiled
+ First version of bytecode interpreter, running at 100-150x speed of C (handles basically everything the compiler can do)
+ Added ` as hotkey to toggle debug console, during editor and gameplay; removed ` as key for second tool, instead used right-shift
+ Fixed alt+hotkey and shortcuts not working if you had clicked on desktop

Version 0.0.6.710:
+ Force power-of-two texture sizes (fixes obscenely slow rendering on some systems)
+ Fix obscure memory leak/bug in file open dialog (fixes crashes when loading a game, changing resolution, and loading another game)
+ Added miniscule delay to game loop until I get proper FPS/vsync working, should prevent 100% CPU for now
+ Properly updates script/etc indexes when name changes in editor (was preventing use of 'compile' on newly created scripts)
+ Fixed resource names to be case insensitive (was affecting 'compile' command again)
+ Fixed under/overflow/error display in FPS meter

Version 0.0.6.684:
+ Word wrap, block indent/unindent, beginnings of auto-indent
+ Proper internal indexing of all world resources (for quick lookup by ID, name, etc.)
+ Spawning of sprites/objects
+ Gameplay display of scenes, tiled layers, and sprites (including optional wraparound and some basic effects like flip, mirror, rotate, alpha, colored tiles)
+ Use cursors to scroll scene (one pixel at a time) in pseudo-gameplay mode; use ESC/F12 to toggle menu overlay
