New version 0.7.0 27.12.2020

I just released the next version 0.7.0, found again on the GitHub repo:

https://github.com/SteffenBauer/Pock...SGTPuzzles.app

I implemented an additional entry method proposed by the MobileRead member EastEriq.

Affected games are those that consist of a grid into which numbers / letters / symbols are entered. (ABCD, Group, Keen, Mathrax, Rome, Salad, Solo, Towers, Undead, Unequal).

Additionally to the classic entry method "click a grid cell to highlight it - then click a control button to enter a number", there is now an additional entry method that should make to faster and easier to enter the same number multiple times.

When no grid cell is currently highlighted or 'pencil-mark highlighted', one can now click a symbol control button to highlight it. The button stays highlighted until it is pressed again or another button is selected. As long as the button is highlighted, pressing a grid cell immediately enters that number; long-pressing enters / removes a pencil mark.

I hope that this enhancement is useful; in my tests it took me some minutes to get used to the new entry method, after that it indeed makes playing a puzzle more efficient and fun. Especially in combination with the 'swap short/long click' button one can now enter whole rows/columns of pencil marks very fast.

I'd be glad is this could be tested and given feedback, if this feature is useful and if it can be improved.
