What's new in version 1.8
- 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.
- 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 keyboard shortcuts to toggle RTS and DTR handshake lines.
- 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 context menu item to connection status label for an easy way to reveal the capture file.
- Added button to "Save as Default" message dialog to open the default file location.
- Added SPACE and MARK parity options.
