Primer 1.1.0 - Cross Compatability!

Primer for Windows:

• Added semver parsing for more reliable updating

Primer for Unix:

• Now cross compatible! Primer.py now supports both Windows and Unix. Pickup where you left off on any OS
• Edited the console output for easier-to-read Total Calculations
• Added semver parsing for more reliable updating

Primer v1.0.5

Primer for Windows:

• Fixed bug causing even numbers to still be processed

Primer for Unix:

• Even numbers will no longer be processed
• Fixed bug preventing the newest generated prime number from being loaded upon restarting the script (This patch had not been tested with Unix)

Primer v1.0.4

Primer for Windows:

• Fixed issue where Primer would crash when prime numbers were generated too quickly

Primer v1.0.3

Primer for Windows:

• Up to 3x faster (Skipping multiples of 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10)
• Fixed duplicate primes being saved to Primer.txt
• All memory/stats are now saved in Primer.config, so the script will remember where it left off even if Primer.txt is removed/altered

Primer for Windows:

• Fixed update cleanup code

Primer for Unix:

• 40% more efficient
• Renamed from Primer.C/Primer(C) to Primer-C (GitHub releases don't like brackets)
