Nothing special in testing. Just use the program and report problems (if exist).

I haven't yet received the registration confirmation from vlavovsoft forum, until then I'll upload here my contribution for Italian translation.
Again I'm impressed by your work. I'm even having fun by solving puzzles :P

Under
Settings > Board
the "use joysti[c]k" description does not change when changing the language.

Only thing I've noticed so far.

Well done!

Thanks, preempalver!
