[CoolTerm-Betas] CoolTerm 2.1.1 Beta 3

[Roger Meier]

All,

Beta 3 is now ready for testing.

v2.2.0b3
--------
- Added "Case Sensitive" to keyword formatting options.
- Added option to modify the timestamp separator for timestamps added to received data.
- Introducing new file extension (.cooltermsettings) for settings file to avoid conflict with the OpenOffice Spreadsheet Template file type. Files with the legacy extension (.stc) will still be compatible. This includes existing default.stc files.
- Optimized keyword formatting code. 
- [Linux] Playing sounds no longer crashes on newer versions of Linux (like Ubuntu 23.10), or Raspberry Pi5.
- [Win] Enumerating serial devices no longer causes the serial ports to be temporarily open.
- [Win] Fixed bug that prevented TAB keypresses from being entered into text fields that should allow them.

v2.2.0b2
--------
- Fixed bug that could crash the app at startup when certain remote control socket errors occur (rare).
- Fixed bug that would cause timestamps in a localized format (selected via the Preferences) being added with an incorrect text encoding, resulting in unexpected characters being included in the timestamps.
- [Win] added workaround for TextArea rendering bug that could result in text contents being rendered incorrectly when keyword formatting is used.


Cheers,

Roger
