Version 0.1.7

* The environment variable SMARTCARD_PORT is checked for the default
  port to use when communication with the card reader.
* The offset parameter is now honored for read and write commands
  which are more than 255 bytes long. 
* Improved handling of not supported (read: asynchronous) cards.
  Thanks go to Boris Bierwald for the patch.

Version 0.1.6

* Support for writing (and thus reading) more than 255 bytes. Finally.
  Thanks for this go to Constantine K. Christakos for pointing my nose
  to a really stupid bug. :-)

Version 0.1.5

* Changes due to the new version of the towitoko library.
* No visible changes.

Version 0.1.4

* Fixed a bug that prevented the program from detecting whether a
  smart card is inserted or not, always resulting in the error message:
  "smartcard: no card inserted".
* Some more bugs in the >255 bytes support were fixed. However, I'm still
  not sure if everything works correctly.

Version 0.1.3

* Smartcard now theoretically supports reading and writing more than
  256 bytes. However, practically, it doesn't, and I don't know why.
  There still seem to be some problems, so don't use this program
  for anything that is of value to you. :)
* There is a new option --count which enables you to specify how many
  bytes you want to read or write. See above.

Version 0.1.2

* The program now correctly decodes the ATR.

Version 0.1.1

* Currently only works with the CT-API library for the Towitoko
  series of smart card readers.
* Can only read simple I2C memory cards.
