87        - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC

126        - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
127          (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
128        - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
129          sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
130          \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
131          code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
132        - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
133          least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):

140        - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
141          occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
142          character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
143        - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
144          settings
145        - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
146          of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
147          (fixes #57)

152        channel audio output device"        channel audio output device"
153        - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
154          on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
155        - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
156          device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
157          to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
158        - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
159          the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
160          unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
161        - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
162        - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
163          channel changes
164        - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
165          audio output channels and MIDI input ports
166        - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
167          an audio output device
168        - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
