### Changelog
### 2.9 (2019-??-??)
- clicking the right top corner in fullscreen mode
closes the player but it did not work on all displays
- the info display was changed to display the filename on top
so it's not diplayed in the middle of the screen
- on start up of the conf editor all text is now selected in the
search text box so it's ready for a new search to be typed
- the conf editor was changed to write the settings to disk
only if the settings were actually modified, also the message
that says that the settings will be available on next start
is now only shown if the settings were actually modified.
- there was an instance in the context menu where the sub menu
arrow was overlapping with the text
- in the input editor when only one character is entered in the
search text box the search is performed only in the input and
not in the command or menu
- in the input editor the routine that generates the input string
was completely rewritten because it was adding Shift where it
wasn't necessary (it took a huge amount of time to implement)
- the context menu has a new track menu where the active track
can be seen and selected, it shows video, audio and subtitle
tracks with various meta data
