Known Bugs:

1.
On some European systems the dialog sheet delay substitutes commas for zeros resulting in non-valid settings. I am still investigating this. If this occurs on your system, you can reset the default value by typing the following into the terminal: defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSWindowResizeTime .2. You will need to restart active applications for the change to take effect.
2.
Renicing applications can cause an error in an extremely rare case where more than one application's name contains an apostrophe and both applications names are the same after the apostrophe.
