I beg you, if you are a developer of an open source app or program - add screenshots of your app to the README file. When looking for the perfect app, I had to install dozens of them just to see what the user interface looked like and whether it suits me. This will allow users to decide if the app they choose will suit them... Please, don't think about it, just do it....

I also hate it when it has a name that is a super common word or phrase. Our last 3 records management prograns at work have been like this, and their help fires are terrible to non existent. Good like trying to search the internet for information on the software with those common names. Even adding terms relevant to what the software does, didn't help much.

(Apologies if this is terribly typed, I've got an impending migraine aura that stayed right as I hit reply and have lost a good chunk of my vision. I can't see most of what I'm saying.)

Unrelated, but I used to get them often. I found one article about vitamin D deficiency as a potential cause, and figured, "what what hell". Started taking 5000IU every day of the Swanson's brand. It took a month or so, but I've been aura migraine free for months (still get migraines sometimes, but they're MUCH less severe than they used to be and no auras). Ask your doctor first, in case you can't take vitamin D, but it's worth a try if it's safe for you.

I actually know what causes most of mine, there are some nerves in my neck that get pinched/aggravated and trigger them. And for some reason, if I have multiple days in a row where I don't get much sleep, those nerves get extra cranky. They are extra cranky right now.
