New version of CrASH (1.3) released.

New stuff:
- Fixed the date and version numbers on some of the documents.
  Note that CRASH82.INC's version number is still 1.1 - this
  is because programming for CrASH has not changed.  Only when
  programming changes will this number change.
- Updated programming docs slightly.
- Fixed the date on the text screen.
- Crash to CrASH now APDs, in a way.  When enough time has
  passed to cause an APD, it turns the calc off identically
  to [2nd]-[OFF] (it doesn't really execute an APD).  This
  doesn't happen under weird conditions though, so don't
  worry.
- The big one: TURBO SUPPORTED.  CrASH can now handle turbo.
  The value you write to port $04 to restore the port to 100%
  normal is $16.  Use $10 for turbo, $16 for normal.  The 1
  is what fixes CR_GRBCopy.  CR_GRBCopy will work with turbo
  mode set.  *

* Due to other reasons Turbo (the program) and ARK still do
not work.  ARK will have a corrupted screen during the game,
but not after (in CrASH) now.  Turbo won't work because
CrASH will reset the port to normal when Turbo returns, so
Turbo does absolutely nothing.

I just sent CrASH 1.3 to DJaCKaL, so by the time you read this
it should be on TI-Files.
