pyILPER 1.7.0 beta release

[jsi]

Thank you very much for testing, I'm rolling out the new release by now.

I'll put this item on the backlog for the next release.

• Maintain the current .log file scheme, appending each (Start/Stop) session with start/stop timestamps inserted, but also
• Create a new file when logging is enabled, with 'Save As...' dialog open with default filename of PrintLog_timestamp in the current default folder
• User can click OK to accept default or modify filename before OK
• User can navigate to alternate folder before saving (and/or renaming) by OK
• Canceling the dialog skips writing new session file, but global log is updated
• File(s) closed when logging is stopped or program ends
  

The reason for saving both logs (the master growing file as well as the current log session file) is that often when exploring new media or working on a project, one wants to save various BASIC or TEXT files as they are explored, but also retain the full log of what was done for the full pyILPer session.

This is an interesting proposal. How do other pyiLPER users think about that?
