Release notes:
• Added outline search paths
• Added Window > Outline Path Explorer
• Added "Query Outline" action for Shortcuts 
• Added "query" command to AppleScript dictionary
• Changed icon to be more centered and less yellow
• Changed Transpose (Command-T) now selects pair

Outline paths are a new feature that can be used now in AppleScripts and Shortcuts actions. In future Bike releases outline paths will become more important as they are used in stylesheets and outline filtering.

This is a small number of features release, that took a whole bunch of work! Outline paths aren't used a lot in Bike now, but they are the foundation for a lot of future features. I'm excited to get them out there and to start using them to build new things.
