Using RESTART command ends transcript #57

In my experience with Gargoyle, Lectrote, etc., if you're playing a game and recording a transcript, and you RESTART, the transcript keeps going. I did this with a z5 game in Spatterlight yesterday and when I went to look at the transcript, it had ended after the RESTART command was entered.

I don't know if this is just a helpful feature interpreters have adopted, or an expected behaviour that Spatterlight isn't performing, but it would be great to have it added.

Thanks for reporting this!

The transcript is definitely supposed to keep going after restart, and it seems to do so in the games I've tested. It even seems to continue after a game is closed and then autorestored.

Are there any more details you could provide to help me reproduce this? Which game, how did you start and finish the transcript?

I tried to fix this in the new release (0.9.2). This bug manifests a bit randomly, so it is hard to tell whether it is actually fixed.

Closing this for now. Let me know if it still happens.
