Release 0.9 - Unnamed Edition
======
About:
======
This utility is used to write img files to SD and USB cards.
Simply run the utility, point it at your img, and then select the
removable device to write to.

This utility can not write CD-ROMs.

Future releases and source code are available on our Sourceforge project:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/

This program is Beta , and has no warranty. It may eat your files,
call you names, or explode in a massive shower of code. The authors take
no responsibility for these possible events.

===================
Build Instructions:
===================
Requirements:
1. MinGW (20120426 from http://mingw.org)

Short Version:
1. Install the Qt Full SDK
2. Run compile.bat -OR- run qmake and then make in the src folder.
3. Compile.bat may be edited to change installation paths of MinGW and QT

=============
New Features:

Added a custom file dialog box to solve the issues between opening a non-existant 
file and saving a read-only file.

Fixed bug LP:1118217 - can not select SD card to write image to on select computers.
Fixed bug LP:1191156 File-Open dialog does not accept non-existing img files as target.
