Improved Visualmem: now you can see all 3 different access (write, read, opcode) at once, generating a RGB color
Improved Waveform window: now the wave adjusts automatically to the zxwindow size
Improved Hexadecimal editor: now it resizes view to zxwindow height
Improved TSConf layers menu: Added "reveal" setting to view which pixels are used by a layer
Improved Scale 0.75 function: now it has antialias
Improved Cpu Transaction Log: now logfiles can be rotated automatically
Improved debugging: added a breakpoint action "putv" to write values on a Debug Memory Zone

Fixed Pentagon interrupt handling: now effects on border and hi-res work almost perfect!
Fixed interrupt bug behaviour where last opcode lasts >=32 t-states and interrupt in the middle
Fixed "Jeff Braine" manufacturer to "New Horizons". Changed Prism machine name to "Prism 512"
Fixed bug having more than 256 text to adventure keyboard words
Fixed bug on CPC vertical scrolling
Fixed segmentation fault bug when drawing CPC machine
Fixed segmentation fault bug when displaying first aid messages
Fixed bug redrawing zx80/81 display, with realvideo disabled, and menu char width less than 8
