Cell Type Copy/paste

Well, since a few people asked for a cell type copy and paste feature, I made one quickly for OP2Mapper 2.

First, be sure you have the latest 'official' version of the Mapper. Then, download the modified EXE:

Overwrite your old EXE. Your edit menu will have a new checkbox option, "copy/paste cell types". If that is checked, whenever the copy or paste command is invoked, the mapper will copy celltypes along with the tiles on the map.

Undo also works with paste: if you undo a paste operation it will put the celltypes back if the option is checked.

If the option is not checked, it will not even copy celltypes (so you can't copy, check the option, and then paste). Also, it won't undo changes to celltypes as the result of a paste if the option is unchecked.

It was just a simple, quick hack for those who needed it.
I have no further plans for any patches to OP2Mapper 2. Any new features will need to wait until OP2Mapper 3.

Also note: I'm not providing any support for this patch. Use at your own risk.
