Sorry for not responding.

I'm afraid that I can't start to review them yet.
I've been working on the cyclic mode feature for a few months,
and I'm now preparing the next release including the feature.

I'll release the next version soon, I'll review your patches after that.


Thanks
Atsushi Kumagai
