Hello Juku!

Thanks a lot for your contribution and sorry for my late reply. Your 
help is very welcome. I have now merged your contribution. Regarding the 
tests, they need some work and currently don't all pass and crash. We 
need to work on that.

Regarding other tasks, we really need to make a list of UI improvements 
that could be done without too much knowledge of the whole code. I will 
try to spend some time on it tomorrow, help is welcome. But basically, 
if there is any UI related thing that you want to improve, feel free to 
ask and we can guide you if needed.

Best regards,

Jean-Baptiste
