Ok, Lanterne version 0.2.0 is now on its way up to extras-devel. In this version:

* A "continuous SOS beacon" feature has been added. Press the "SOS" button on the main page to start it running; press again to stop it. Note that the beacon uses the dot-duration value set in the Morse Code page, so you can speed it up or slow it down if you want.

* I've given up on trying to play with the torch parameters, so I've gotten rid of the Torch window and replaced it with a simple Torch On/Off button on the main page.

* The UI buttons have been modified to be (hopefully) a bit more finger-friendly.

* All parameter values are now stored persistently via QSettings.

* The strobe timer has been fixed to strobe first, not pause first.

* The package meta-data has been improved slightly (setting up links to the Github website and bug management pages).

Please note that Lanterne is a very young project, and will certainly contain bugs! Thanks.
