Program improvements:

- The conversion step now displays the amount of time it takes.
General content fixes, applied to both Worm and Ward:
- Standardized on the style "Case Fifty-Three", instead of the other styles used (which include, but are not limited to, "Case-53", "case 53", "case-fifty-three", "Case Fifty Three", ...). Similarly for other PRT cases.
- Standardized on "Mrs. Yamada", replacing many instances of "Ms."
- Removed over-capitalization of "university".
- Fixed a variety of missing periods between sentences.
- Fixed many erroneously-italicized exclamation points, closing quotation marks, and commas.

4.5.0
Program improvements:
- Fixed the output of incorrect text replacement warnings to no longer get garbled with the progress bar. (You generally won't see this, unless you are developing this scraper, or if wildbow updates the source text.)
General content fixes, applied to both Worm and Ward:
- Restored the author's original scene breaks, which were "■" for Worm, and either "⊙", "☽", or "⊙ ⊙ ⊙ ⊙ ⊙" for Ward. (One instance of "⊙⊙" was assumed erroneous and corrected to a single "⊙".) Previously "■" and "⊙" were being replaced with horizontal rules.
- Changed a few instances of "T-shirt" to "t-shirt"; the latter is overwhelmingly more common.
- Fixed missing spaces after commas.
- Fixed a variety of misplaced, backward, or extraneous quotation marks.
- Correctly hyphenated "X-year-old"; usually it was "X year old", but all of "X-year-old", "X year-old", and "X-year old" also appeared.
Ward-specific content fixes:
- Spot fixes through Polarize 10.x.
- Fixed a few instances where "the Pharmacist" was not capitalized, even after transitioning from a profession to a cape name.
4.4.0
General content fixes, applied to both Worm and Ward:
- Always capitalize "Earths" when referring to other worlds.
Worm-specific content fixes:
- Always capitalize "The Clairvoyant". The previous fixup pass missed cases where his name started a sentence.
Ward-specific content fixes:
- Spot fixes through Beacon 8.12.
- Always capitalize "the Megalopolis".
- Fixed instances of a hyphen-minus followed by a comma (i.e. -,), mostly replacing them with em dashes.
4.3.0
Program improvements:
- Used parallelism during the conversion process, so it should be significantly faster on multi-core computers (i.e. all modern computers).
- Introduced a progress bar during the conversion process, instead of printing out each chapter filename as it is converted.
- Removed an unnecessary dependency (
xmlserializer) and updated other dependencies.
General content fixes, applied to both Worm and Ward:
- Removed the capitalization of the "master" PRT designation, like all the others.
- Fixed a few instances of "P.R.T." to be "PRT", which is overwhelmingly more common.

- Fixed a variety of uncapitalized sentences.
- Fixed more cases of extra spaces after sentences.
- Fixed missing commas and periods at the end of quotations.
- Fixed various dash issues.
- Fixed Ward's indentation (for blockquote-type paragraphs) to match Worm's, at 30px, instead of mostly being 40px but sometimes 30px.
Ward-specific content fixes:
- Spot fixes through Torch 7.x.
- Fixed a few places where the letters "tv" were over-capitalized by the converter, e.g. in "outvoted".
- Ensured all train station names are capitalized (e.g. "Norwalk station" became "Norwalk Station").
- Settled on lowercasing "kiss and kill"; it was inconsistent.

- Fixed missing periods at the end of sentences.

- Fixed missing spaces after periods.
- Fixed some hyphen-minuses that should be em dashes, at the beginning of italicized quotes.
- Converted hyphen-minuses to en dashes for joint names.
- Fixed some periods that were over-italicized. (This isn't noticeable, but it bugs me.)
Worm-specific fixes:
- Fixed the possessive of "Chuckles" to be "Chuckles’s" instead of "Chuckles’"
Ward-specific fixes:
- Standardized on "patrol block" instead of "Patrol block" or "Patrol Block". All three were in use, but the former was most widely used.
