Release Notes/suite3270/4.2alpha1

Known issues

 * None.

Improvements

 * Added the -subst option to the String action.
 * Added a REST endpoint that accepts POST operations, with the body in plain text or JSON format.
 * Added the cursorAt, inputFieldAt and stringAt options to the Wait action.
 * Added support for draft-ietf-tn3270e-extensions-04, an Internet draft that corrects several flaws in the TN3270E protocol. This support is preliminary, so there is a new resource (contentionResolution), which can be set to false to disable it.
 * Added the timingMarks query.
 * Added the 2x option to the callback resource.
 * Added JSON support to s3270 (and the socket-based s3270 protocol) and b3270.
 * Added the scriptedAlways resource.
 * Added the wrapperDoc resource and -nowrapperdoc command-line option.
 * Added the indent resource and -indent command-line option.
 * Changed the default value for the b3270 utf8 resource to true.
 * Added the Fail action.
 * Improved the readability of the x3270 color schemes. default and bright are now identical. The old values are still available as old-default and old-bright.
 * Changed the default NVT-mode terminal name to xterm-color for color displays. (It is still xterm for monochrome displays.)
 * Made the termName resource apply NVT mode hosts (the A prefix]) and local processes (the -e command-line option).
 * Added support for building on MSYS2.
 * Added the wc3270 SnapScreen action.

Bug fixes

 * Fixed blocking issues with the Transfer action.
 * Fixed numerous tcl3270 issues, such as the Quit action not acting immediately, the s3270 back-end process sometimes persisting after tcl3270 exits.
 * Fixed the termName resource not applying to local processes (the -e command-line option).
 * The Release configurations now build on Visual Studio.
