--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2014-03-23
Release of 1.1 fixed and improved version (by Wacek of Arise)

+ Option to automatically correct chars that are allowed for tape filenames, but
caused disk errors when used in disk filenames. Those are: "," "*" and "?",
now replaced with "." "+" and "!" before disk save. This option can be
disabled in the menu.

+ 100% accurate block size calculation for files read from the tape. Previous
method was inaccurate by even up to 3 blocks, which caused unexpected "disk
full" errors, truncated saves etc. Rewritten from scratch.

+ Handling of 0 bytes long files. Previously they resulted in full 64k memory
dump on the disk (259 blocks). Now working properly.

+ Fixed resaving on disk errors. Previously, resaving would always create
a corrupt, 32/33 blocks file on the disk, regardless of the original filesize.
Now working properly.

+ Removed space-fill when renaming. Previously, when renaming a destination
file, all characters after the cursor would be replaced with spaces. This is
now disabled, which is more handy especially when handling files with load
errors (you can change fe. only the first char in filename with "!" to know
which files were corrupt and later come back and try to replace them
manually). This is more of a workflow choice, than bugfix :)

+ Turbo loading is sound enabled now (simple $d418 dump in line with most used
turboloaders). Also, more of a choice than bugfix. It is useful if you're
doing your dumps in the background as I do ;)

+ Default setting for Automatic Tape Transfer is now ON. Can be still disabled
in the menu.
