Bug fix for Carbytes

[Paul Blackmore]

CarBytesV1_3_2Beta.zip is now available on the ftp site...

Version 1.3.2 Beta fixes the following problems:

1. Bug:
     Reported by: Matt Bower.

     Pressing Stop(f3) while recording prevents the Record(f7)
     from opening the com port again.

   Problem:
     Stop(f3) was not closing the com port correctly. This prevented
     Record(f7) from re-opening the com port.

   Solution:
     Fixed code so that Stop(f3) now correctly closes the com port.

2. Enhancement:
     Requested by Eric Clark.

     The ability to send multiple requests.  This is important for
     data streams that require mode switching, from say, "idle chatter"
     to "aldl data" modes.

   Implementation:
     The request field may now contain multiple requests. Each request
     must be enclosed in double quotes and seperated by commas.
     i.e. "f4 56 00","f4 56 01"

     The checksum is calculated for each request prior to sending.
     The reply from each request is discarded except for the final
     request which is returned and processed normally.
