[CoolTerm-Betas] CoolTerm v1.7.1b2 ready for testing

[Roger Meier]

CoolTerm v1.7.1b2 is now on the server and ready for testing. Here is what’s new:

1.7.1b2
- Updated code to use use Serial Port API 2.0.
- Added SPACE and MARK parity options (Windows only so far).
- Added keyboard shortcuts to toggle RTS and DTR handshake lines.
- [Win] Improved mouse wheel scroll performance.
- [Mac][Win] Added Preferences setting for smart display pausing. If enabled, scrolling up automatically pauses the display. Scrolling to the bottom automatically unpauses the display.
- "PauseDisplay" is no longer a Connection Settings parameter.
- Added "PauseDisplay(ID as integer, Value as boolean)" script command.
- Added "Remote" menu that is visible when the Remote Control Socket is enabled via the preferences. The menu item indicates if the socket is connected or not. The "Disconnect" menu item can be used to close and active connection.
- Added better error handling when the remote control socket port or HTTP server port are already in use by another app.
- Replaced "Relative Time" timestamp format with "Time + Millis". It is now possible to record current time stamps with millisecond resolution, and the relative timestamp format is no longer necessary.
- Renamed the "Absolute Date and Time" and "Absolute" timestamp formats to "Date and Time" and "Time", respectively.
- Added code to improve accuracy for millisecond resolution timestamps.
- Added option to add timestamps to received data displayed in the CoolTerm window. The timestamps are added to the actual data, i.e. they will also be present in hex view.

1.7.1b1
- Added "GetFrontmostWindow as integer" script command.
- Improved color picker code.
