New home automation package will be ready for alpha testing soon.

I didn't plan on releasing another alpha version so soon but I thought the changes were worth it. I added support for using the serial port with the Elk M1 driver and improved the interface designer usability.

ENHANCEMENT: Serial port support for the Elk M1 driver has been added.
ENHANCEMENT: The interface designer is now much more intuitive to use.
ENHANCEMENT: Enhanced interface designer to allow user's to configure the base interface info, such as the interface name, background color, etc.
ENHANCEMENT: Enhanced interface designer to support base interface deletion.
BUGFIX: Interface designer was not drawing the background color.
BUGFIX: Interface designer was not drawing the background image.
BUGFIX: Interface designer would error when clicking on the background (as oppose to a control).
ENHANCEMENT: Added validations on control names and device names to ensure they comply with the scripting language identifier naming rules.
ENHANCEMENT: Preliminary work on the USB-UIRT driver.

If you are interested in testing this please send me a message or post a request at the Johnnynine.com forum.

Thanks
Johnny
