- squashed a bug

While creating an animated GIF I notice a problem when stopping the recording process.

NB*: Press the Ctrl + Esc key to stop the recording process; key combination will flash intermittently in the Title bar while recording.

Updated:
- Dwm Checkbox added to Options window
- applied various small improvements and bug fixes

Recently while creating animated GIFs I notice a couple easy to fix issues.
- smoother drawing for Rectangular Snipping (Ctrl + R)
- frame counter fixed when not in Write Buffer mode
- some minor improvements to XML Builder

Updated:
- improved Drag & Drop file conversion

Previously only AVI files were allowed, this has been updated to include all file types.
1. From XML Builder select the Output checkbox (default format is GIF).
2. Click the Save button, XML Builder will close, and the Bullseye window will open.
3. Drag a video file onto the Bullseye window to convert to the previously selected format.
4. Converted file will be saved to the same folder where the original video file was dragged from.

NB*: I forgot this option was available, and only remembered because I wanted to convert my iPhone screen recording from MOV to GIF.
