This is a maintenence release affecting mostly the Windows builds: 1. Introduces the (not very useful) option --skip-scan. 2. Fixes a long standing bug on Windows regarding options --file=<file name>/ --utf-8=<file name>/--utf-16=<file name>. 3. With the Windows-console, we had best experiences when setting it up to display narrow (8 bit) characters while just writing wide (16 bit) characters to it. In order to achieve this the whole program had to be transformed (re-factured.) Anyway, with German OEM installed we still don’t know wether it is even possible to write say kyrillic letters to the Windows-console. 4. Fixes an issue on Windows which had already been slipped through some time ago, i.e. under certain circumstances option -a/--apply was not working any longer. 5. Fixes some minor glitches we came across.
