Time for a new release?

[penguin359]

Hello Aaron,

I am the maintainer of the Debian package for tiv which I first built for the 1.2.1 release from GitHub. I've just recently noticed that there's been a number of commits in the year and a half since that release and I was wondering if it was time for a new release. As my watch filters only track releases, I didn't notice that there had been working going on in the repo and haven't been following along. Is there enough changes in here to make it worth making a new release?

Also, I should note that I don't follow updates for CImg itself as the Debian version builds against the external cimg-dev package instead of the CImg.h that bundled in the repo. I just do a periodic rebuild of the tiv package to build it against the latest cimg-dev package that is available for Debian.

IIRC, most changes were about letting the code expose an externally usable API -- not really much that might benefit command line users. I think we should create a new "1.3" release as soon as there is a new cimg release that allows us to resolve #144

We probably should also check the general font situation for unicode teletext characters, perhaps we can enable them by default, increasing resolution a bit....
