Full Release Notes

* Now licensed as GPLv3. It shouldn't do anything to your current workflow, but I believe this is the only license available based on the dependencies. I'm not a legal expert though, so please let me know if I'm wrong. (#22)

# Big stuff 🎉 

## Multi-shell support

By changing the line below, you can now start using `fnm` with different Node versions on each shell.

```diff
- eval `fnm env`
+ eval `fnm env --multi`
```

It means you can now have different versions for different projects and work in parallel in splits/tabs of your favorite terminal.

## Aliases

A simple way of calling a version in a name:

```bash
fnm install v8.11.3
fnm alias v8.11.3 stable
fnm use stable # like `fnm use v8.11.3`
```
