Software update: XnView MP 0.99.0

Version 0.99.0 of XnView MP has been released. This free program allows images to be viewed and edited. MP stands for Multi Platform, which means there are versions for Windows, Linux and macOS, each with separate downloads for 32bit and 64bit environments. XnView MP uses the same source code for Windows, Linux, and macOS; functionality and appearance of the individual versions are therefore virtually the same. This includes support for unicode, full-bit depth images, an easier way for translations, and a better database. The following improvements have been made in this release:
