[CoolTerm-Betas] CoolTerm v2.0.1 Beta 0 is ready for testing

[Roger Meier]

All,

The first beta (b0) for v2.0.1 is now available for testing. 2.0.1 will be mainly a bugfix and improvement release.

v2.0.1b0
--------
- Replaced ESC[;H with ESC[2J as the escape sequence used to clear screen.
- Added option to use either ASCII 3 (ETX) or ESC[;H to home the display (i.e. scroll it to the very top).
- [Win][Linux] fixed bug that would make the built-in help view not accessible when opened from the Chart and Trace Properties windows.
- Updated Python scripting example 1 to demonstrate the use of additional useful commands.
- Updated menu short cuts to toggle status line to also require pressing the Alt (or Option on macOS) key to allow CMD-SHIFT-R to be used to stop a file capture again.
- Changed the default for "Wait for Termination String" under the file capture options from true to false.
- Pressing the OK button in Chart Properties and Trace Properties windows now immediately redraws the chart rather than waiting for a refresh triggered by new received data.
- [macOS] added code to prevent being able to close Connection Options or Trace Properties windows while a color picker window is still open as that could otherwise crash the app.
- Added context menu item to plain text and hex displays to more easily access font settings.
- The x-axis scaling method is now automatically set to "Auto" whenever the source for the x-axis values is changed.
- Whenever the source for the x-axis value is change to one of the data columns, CoolTerm will update the X-axis label to the name of the trace associated with the selected data column.
