Improvements over previous versions

• You can now process multiple files one after the other, without closing the program! A pop-up window asks the user if he wants to close the program or process another file. This eliminates the need to press Enter in console after finishing work.
• Instead of creating a file called "citations.xlsx", the created file will now be called the same as the original file, with "_citations.xlsx" appended.
  This will make it easier to create citations for multiple files in the same directory.
• After processing a file, all found citations are listed in the console as a preview.
• .zip file comes with an example.docx so users can experiment with the program and see what the output looks like
• Various typos fixed

• Now supports all Unicode letters when detecting authors!

• Stricter match recognition means reduced frequency of inaccurate citations recorded
• Possesive forms of names now get turned into regular forms (Author's 2010 -> Author 2010), with the added benefit of reducing duplicates
