SikuliX wait_timeout also needs to be changed as part of sikuli_step() when timeout step is used. Otherwise, when present() or visible() is invoked, the SikuliX timeout setting gets reverted back to its internal variable. Also, 'casper' object should be used in displaying the error message instead of 'this'. Otherwise, for the execution context, this would be undefined and error message does not show up.

In newer DevTools Protocol, Page.captureScreenshot now supports clip parameter. This allows directly specifying the region to capture for a web element, instead of the previous implementation where a full screen is captured and then clipped as a PhantomJS webpage. This improves performance as only the data of the selector snapshot is needed to be transferred between TagUI and Chrome instead of the whole webpage. Also, as PhantomJS is not involved, the quality and color would be more accurate without additional web profile of PhantomJS. Lastly, this improvement also fixes an issue with snap step in live mode for Chrome, where the snapshot captures full screen instead of only the selector.
this change adds support for escape characters in live mode, for eg when using keyboard step ' will give error and requires creative syntax to type a ' idea for solution is from solving a similar problem during recent development of personal side project - tagui for python
Making a commit to improve on the existing script to kill TagUI processes. For eg if Ctrl+C is used to kill TagUI prematurely, TagUI main process would lose the control to do clean-up of integrations (SikuliX, R, Python, Chrome) and Chrome browser. This shell script (for all the 3 OSes) will kill those processes to free up memory and allows TagUI to start running from a clean state. These actions are not done by default when TagUI is launched, as it is expected that TagUI exits cleanly. Otherwise cleaning up all processes by default will hide potential issues should they arise and they will end up not getting reported.
