    What’s New

    1. Organized Biblical Navigation
      We’ve restructured the Bible sidebar to better reflect the structure of Scripture. The book list is now split into Old Testament and New Testament categories, making it significantly faster to find and expand the specific book you need.

    2. Session Persistence Fixes
      Resolved a critical issue where the application would default back to the American Standard Version (ASV) upon restart. The application now correctly "normalizes" translation names and forces the sidebar to synchronize with your restored tabs, ensuring you always pick up exactly where you left off.

    3. Professional UI Cleanup
      Removed internal build timestamps (DATE, TIME) from the window title bar, splash screen, and "About" dialog.
      Replaced cluttered debug info with a clean, formal versioning string (V1.0.0.1).
      Removed the redundant "Settings" top-level menu to streamline the interface (all settings remain accessible via the sidebar gear icon).

    4. Cross-Platform Stability
      Windows: Optimized hardware detection for local AI by fixing low-level memory polling errors.
      Linux: Improved build consistency and resource mapping.
      Parity: Both platforms now share 100% feature parity and identical versioning logic.
      🚀 Technical Improvements
      Fixed a "most vexing parse" error in the Update Manager that caused instability during cross-platform compilation.
      Standardized Bible translation handling to use full canonical names (e.g., "English Standard Version") to ensure perfect sync between the reader and the library sidebar.
      Updated the internal version tracking system to support automated background checks for future releases.
      📥 Installation
      Windows: Download and run PastorsStudyPro_Setup.exe.
      Linux: Run the PastorsStudyPro_Installer.run or execute the binary directly from the build folder.
