Bugs Fixed
- Use old-style check for network availability for the updater, as the newer API is not reliable for dial-up connections.
- Never add a new note on a click in note tool mode, because undoing such an addition can also remove a text edit in progress.

- Fix Apple bug for AppleScript support for saving with arbitrary file types.
- Fix AppleScript support for note color property.

- The side panels in full screen mode are now hidden when you switch to another application.
- Renamed "Arrow" to "Line", as it now allows more general line styles. Also change some keyboard shortcuts.
