## MAJOR refactoring in progress ##

# BROKEN SCRIPTS #
  (These scripts need updated to use the new global_vars & try_and_print)
    * user_data_transfer.py
    * install_sw_bundle.py

* All Python scripts
  * PLAN: Replace vars_wk with global_vars

* functions.py
  * PLAN: Will hold (nearly?) all functions going forward
    * Should simplify the remaining scripts
    * (e.g. reset_browsers and sw_diagnostics both had a backup_browsers())
  * PLAN: Move all program definitions to functions.py
    * (e.g. vars_wk['SevenZip'] --> global_vars['Programs']['SevenZip'])
  * Added major_exception()
    * Should be called if anything goes wrong to alert user and provide info
  * Added non_clobber_rename()
    * Appends a number (if necessary) to avoid overwriting data
  * Added popen_program()
    * Removes subprocess req for sw_checklist
  * Added try_and_print()
    * Run a function and show CS/NS/etc
    * Can add additional "result" strings via Exception classes
    * Passes unrecognized args/kwargs to the function
    * Used by scripts to standardize message formatting and error handling
  * exit_script() now handles opening the log (if set) and killing caffeine.exe
  * Refactored init_vars_wk/os code to work with global_vars
    * Uses the try_and_print function for better formatting and error handling
    * BREAKING: 'OS' vars now located in global_vars['OS'] (including 'Arch')
      * OS labeled as 'outdated', 'very outdated', and 'unrecognized' as needed
    * BREAKING: renamed PROGRAMS to TOOLS
      * Expanded TOOLS
  * Removed log_file as a required argument from all functions
  * Removed vars_wk/global_vars as a required argument from all functions
  * Removed unused WinPE functions
  * Sorted functions

* user_checklist() (formerly reset_browsers())
  * Most functions moved to functions.py (see above)
  * Browsers
    * Work has been split into backup, reset, and config sections
    * Script now asks all questions before starting backup/reset/config
    * Script now forces the homepage to DEFAULT_HOMEPAGE (set in functions.py)
      * (i.e. it no longer asks first, it just does it)
    * Current homepages are listed where possible before backup/reset/config

* Launch/Launchers
  * Added QuickBooks support

* Removed launchers
  * CPU-Z
  * HWMonitor
  * PerfMonitor2
  * SanDisk Express Cache
  * Shortcut Cleaner
  * SuperAntiSpyware (SAS)

* Replaced Notepad2-Mod with Notepad++
