This update is unfinished but 0.7.1 contains some annoying bugs and my switch has hardware failure so I'll have to release this in it's current state. Be aware that some new features may not work as expected since I have been unable to thoroughly test them myself. Thanks to @muxi1 for doing testing for me.

Changes:
Fixed bug that causes segfault after installing a N-Xplorer update.
Fixed bug that causes file extensions not to be recognized if a file name contains more than one dot.
Zip extraction now extracts to a folder. Leave the name empty to extract to the current folder.
Added ability to theme the settings UI.
Fixed crash when copying a file smaller than 0.25 GB.
Added more sorting options (not fully implemented due to problems mentioned above).

If you want help you can join my discord (linked in the read me file) or comment on the GBATemp thread. If you want to report a bug or request a feature open a issue here on GitHub but be aware I may not be able to implement until I can afford a new Switch to do development on.

Added parental controls when accessing nand filesystems.
Fixed bug that mounted the user partition to both user:/ and sys:/.
Added GUI save options to the text editor (Save and exit, save as and exit, and exit without saving).

Pre-release

This release cleans up the code a bit and makes debugging easier using nxlink.
The following new features were added:
Support was added for the user and system partitions on the nand. Be careful when doing things here as you could brick your system or corrupt save data.
The cursor will now remember it's position when going up a directory (pressing b).
If you create a new folder but the name already exists it will append a number to the folder name (this works the same as creating new folder in Microsoft Windows).

Enhancement and stability

Pre-release

This release moved the logic and input to a separate thread from the GUI.
Copying files was made more stable.
Quick navigation was added by using the left and right buttons on the main explorer UI
Seconds was added to the clock.
Images can now be zoomed, rotated, and moved around the screen.
You can now exit a text file without saving by pressing minus (this is only temporary until I make a better solution).
A message was added while deleting files so that you know the app isn't just frozen if it takes longer than expected.
Plus can now be used to exit the app from the main explorer UI more quickly (requested by muxi).
Bugs were fixed and the app is more stable in general now.
Probably other stuff I'm forgetting.

Thanks to @muxi1 and qpwoei for helping to test this release.
