 * Fixed timestamps of visited URLs. Your browsing history will be erased but can still be found in "visited.txt".
 * Fixed issue where "heading" feed entries would turn unread after a while.
 * Fixed duplicate U key for home row navigation.
+* Fixed an issue with Unicode characters in quick lookup search terms.
 
 ## 1.0.3
 * Improved font glyph caching: only rasterize glyphs when drawing text, and retry after failure. This makes initial document layout faster and avoids issues with permanently lost glyphs.
