  * - Kill/revive creature(s) with --kill/--revive
  * - Show skills/labors only when -ss/-sl/-v is given or a skill/labor is changed
  * - Allow multiple -i switches
- * - Display current job
 
  * Done:
+ * - Add switch -1 to only display one line for every creature. Good for an overview.
+ * - Display current job (has been there all the time, but not shown in Windows due to missing memory offsets)
  * - Remove magic numbers
  * - Show social skills only when -ss is given
  * - Hide hauler labors when +sh is given
