138      instruments of the same file.
139    
140    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect its new --libdir
141      (impolitely forcing the user now to have at least libgig 3.3.0).

171      and make.
172    
173    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
174      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
175      Debian 6.
176    
177    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
178      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
179    
180    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
181      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
182      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
183      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
184    
185    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
186    
187    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
188      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
189      wrong main widget hidden state.
190    
191    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
192    
193    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
194      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
195      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
196      targets (--enable-debug).
197    
198    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
199    
200    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
201      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
202      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
203    
204    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
205      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
206    
207    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
208      a menu separator has been added.
209    
210    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
211      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.

214      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a

218      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.

229    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
230    
231    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
232      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
233      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
234      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
235      a sampler the next time.
236    
237    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
238    
239    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
240

243      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
244      (default none).
245    
246    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
247      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.

249    
250    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
251      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
252      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
253      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
254    
255    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
256      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
257    
258    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
259      screwed.

262      e.g. by other frontends.
263    
264    * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
265      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
266      (fixes segfault on device changes)
