New version of pcsc-lite: 1.9.0

I just released a new version of pcsc-lite 1.9.0.
pcsc-lite is a Free Software implementation of the PC/SC (or WinSCard) API for Unix systems.

This version includes 2 changes I already documented on this blog:

• Your PC/SC application 200% faster
• Unicode characters in a reader name

Because of the major speed improvement I decided to name this version 1.9.0.

Changes

• SCardEndTransaction(): greatly improve performances (x300)
• tokenparser: accept any Unicode character in a reader name

• Some other minor improvements
