It uses [Unix epoch timestamps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time) (in milliseconds) in order to calculate time differences, and those values are too large for 32 bit operations (you could technically work a hack to seperate and store them in two 32 bit allocations but that would open another can of worms). + +You can run the program in the following environments: + +* Windows 7,8,10 +* Linux +* Intel based Mac OSX (version 10.12 or higher).

It will technically work, but because there's not coded routines (yet) in the program for IO locking operations, you risk to loose your data if more than one person edits the same record at the same time. \ No newline at end of file
