uBeeDisk v1.3.0 is released. uBeeDisk is a tool that copies disks and images from one to another. It was developed to archive Microbee disk images from floppy disks and to write them back to floppy, but other disk formats can be added. It is intended mainly for users of computer emulators. As the program makes use of the 'LibDsk' library there are many options for image types. The program provides some data recovery methods along with 'info' files for each disk image file created. An 'info' file contains information about the disk image, a status map of all sectors read from the disk, and an MD5 stamp of the associated disk image.

New for this release:
* Added --retry-l1 and --retry-l2 retry options. The existing --retry option is the same as option --retry-l2.
* Added --unattended option to enable/disable automatic handling of errors. This mode is now enabled by default. See the global section of the ubeedisk.ini.sample if disabled is required by default.
* Added --unattended-rab option to set number of sector errors allowed before aborting the copy process when the unattended mode is in use.
* Added --unattended-rps option to set number of retries per sector allowed when the unattended mode is in use.
* Added --unattended-seek option to set the maximum number of error seeks per disk read allowed when the unattended mode is in use.
* Added another option to the recovery options: '[T] ReTry (don't seek T0)'
* Added Atari ST 80T Single/Double sided and some MSDOS formats to ubeedisk.ini.sample.
* Added --diskdesc option so that a disk description can be passed.
* Added --diskdescf option for a disk description contained in a file.
* Added --force option to bypass confirming requested actions.
* Added --append-error to append the error log (if created) to the 'info' file instead of creating an error file.
* Added a win32 binary installer to the distribution.

uBeeDisk v1.3.0 Changelog:
* Added data rate and encoding mode detection and reporting to the disk scanning process.
* Changes to the disk scanning command so that scanning will only occur on one side of the disk when specifying an --iside option. If not specified then both sides are scanned.
* Major rewrite of the Makefile.
Fixed:
* Fixed a problem when using batch mode (--count=n) the seeked count in the unattended mode was not being set back to 0 for the next copy operation.
* Fixed the disk copy process to set 'mbee' detection based on input and not output driver types.
* Fixed the disk info command.
