Major changes and new features

Search settings
The settings for each search engine, on-line dictionary, on-line encyclopaedia and local dictionary are no longer on the settings window (tabs 1-10), where the general program settings are still found, but are accessed through the archive: simply highlight the item required and hit Enter (or double-click) to open the new Edit window.

2) Unselect Quotes? (if selected).
