LiteBox 0.8.8

When you exit a game from the pause screen, you can now choose what happens next. You can leave the game to close by itself, close the game window, or close the emulator, and you decide how long LiteBox waits before it acts. The option sits in the gameplay settings, and you can also set it for a single emulator or a single game.

Game detection is more accurate. By default LiteBox now waits until a window is both running smoothly and takes up a fair part of the screen before it treats it as the game, so it stops mistaking a launcher splash for the real thing. You can also tell it to ignore a window by its title, not only by the program name, and it already knows to skip the EA launcher.

The documents you attach to a game now stay in the Documents tab. They no longer show up as playable versions of the game, and they are kept out of multi disc playlists.

Editing several games at once is more reliable. A command line you type is no longer lost when you switch tabs, and a game can no longer end up with both DOSBox and an emulator turned on at the same time.

A few smaller things were fixed as well. There was a possible crash in the image editor, web image downloads now check that they really received an image, and some text that could overlap on the Uninstall and Caches pages at larger display sizes was tidied up.

The debug log is now off unless you turn it on, so a normal launch writes nothing extra.
