🚀 Release Notes: Dead Link Checker V2.1.2
Here are the details for the latest release:

⚡ Enhanced Performance & Stability
Fixed "Not Responding" Issues: The application now remains fully active and responsive on Windows during deep scans.
Asynchronous Processing: System tray initialization and system notifications are now handled in the background to ensure the main UI never freezes.
Smart Log Throttling: The progress monitor now processes UI updates in controlled chunks, preventing the interface from lagging during rapid link discovery.

🆕 New Features
Check External Links Toggle: A new sidebar option that allows you to skip validation for external domains. This is perfect for high-speed internal link audits.

Premium Button Redesign:
Start: Prominent primary action button.
Pause & Stop: Redesigned into a sleek, horizontal compact group.
Vibrant Visuals: Updated button colors with modern gradients and hover states (Emerald Green, Amber Orange, and Ruby Red).

🛠️ Technical Improvements
Robust Startup: Implemented a deferred initialization sequence to prioritize the main window's appearance.
UTF-8 Encoding: Explicitly ensured Windows console and UI encoding are set to handle special characters without crashing.
Modular Architecture: Cleaned up internal imports and updated build specs for cross-environment compatibility.

Full Changelog: V2.0.4...V2.1.1

🚀 Release Notes: Dead Link Checker v2.1.1

This release marks a significant upgrade to the user interface and core crawling capabilities, transforming the tool into a more interactive and professional desktop application.

📊 1. Interactive Results Grid

Live Table View: Added a new Grid View tab as the default landing page.
Structured Data: Results are now displayed in a professional table containing:
- URL: Fully qualified link (Left-aligned for better readability).
- Status: HTTP Code and Status Text (e.g., 404 Not Found).
- Type: Link, Image, Script, etc.
- Time: Precise response time in seconds.
- Location: Whether the link is Internal or External.
Auto-Scrolling: The grid now automatically scrolls to the newest results as they are found.
Real-time Filtering: Added a search bar above the grid to instantly filter results by any keyword (domain, status code, file type).

⏸️ 2. Pause & Resume Capability

Full Control: You can now pause an active scan to inspect results or free up system resources and resume it later without losing progress.
Thread Safety: The engine handles pausing gracefully across multiple concurrent workers.

📥 3. System Tray & Background Operation

Minimize to Tray: Click the 'X' button to minimize the app to the system tray instead of closing it, keeping long-running scans alive in the background.
Native Notifications: The app now sends Windows system notifications when:
- An analysis is completed (with a summary of found links).
- An analysis is manually stopped.
- The app is minimized to the tray.
Tray Menu: Quick access to "Restore" or "Exit" via right-click on the tray icon.

🗺️ 4. Improved Sitemap & XML Parsing

New Parser Engine: Integrated lxml to resolve "xml tree builder" errors when parsing complex sitemaps.
Robust Fallback: Added an automatic fallback to html.parser if advanced XML features are unavailable, ensuring the sitemap analysis never fails.

🛠️ 5. Technical Improvements

Version 2.1.1: Major version bump reflecting the new feature set.
Cleaner Build: Updated PyInstaller specs to include all new dependencies (CTkTable, pystray, plyer, lxml).
Updated Installer: A new professional x64 installer (DeadLinkChecker_Setup_v2.1.1_x64.exe) with updated version metadata.
