Windows launcher improvement - starting is still done via smalltalk.bat
Part of this release is:
smalltalk.bat - main script logging needs a powershell (still possible to run completely without
powershell but some features will not be avilable)
smalltalk.ps1 - powershell filed called from the smalltalk.bat file to better control
log file logging and all the powershell environment
smalltalk.cfg - contains configuration for smalltalk.bat and smalltalk.ps1
smalltalk_close_shell.lnk & smalltalk_shell_remains_open.lnk - provided
for running withing the project\smalltalk directory, contains
custom icon.
create_shortcut_on_desktop_via_hardlink.txt - contains guide how to create a desktop shortcut to .lnk files
for users via hardlink.
======================================
The features of this advanced script =
======================================
Quick start (with close or leave open the shell after Smalltalk start)
Starting with default image on defined path
Starting with any image (user is prompted to select one via menu) on defined path
Logging into a file - either overwrite or append at start start (minimal PowerShell 2.0 is required)
- User can change the log file encoding to ASCII, UTF8 (default), UTF16, UTF32
- User can decide if he wants a date and/or time part added to the log file
The script automatically detects PowerShell version and based on that decides which functionality will be available.
Error handling on the batch and PowerShell level - user is informed about the details of error
Batch file tries to exit gracefully, if possible
The advanced features:
A warning limit is in place for the log file size. If it gets too large as it may slowdown the Smalltalk.
User can decide if there will be a shell opened for error messages or if Smalltalk will for from shell and
will not display any messages on the command prompt.
User can choose if the validation process is active and if the successful message is shown.
User can choose which redirect will be used in PowerShell - if the native one or cmd.exe one (little bit faster in most cases).
version 1.4.5
[Batch] Fixed issue with batch string error message (strip the reserved characters.
+ changed the :exit_sequence function - %~1 to %1 (same with %~2) when calling powershell

Keyboard mapping: remove all shortcut definitions from `d_win32.rc`
...as they were unified and moved to `DeviceWorkstation class>>#defaultKeyboardMapDefinition`.
This makes this file more or less obsolete and it will eventually vanish.

Keyboard mapping: remove all shortcut definitions from `keyboard.rc`
...as they were moved to `DeviceWorkstation class>>#defaultKeyboardMapDefinition`.
This makes this file obsolete and it will eventually vanish. Mapping for national
character was removed completely - will be handled directly by XWorkstation to
align code with Windows.
All customizations should go `rc.d` script or to user's private startup
script.
