### Issues
If you have any issues or would like a feature to be added please don't hesitate to submit an issue after checking to make sure it hasn't already been submitted. Using the templates is a good place to start, but sometimes they're overkill. For example, if the program segfaults for you, you don't need to state that the intended behaviour is to not segfault. \

If you'd like to contribute a good place to start is looking at open issues and trying to fix one with a pull request. \
