167    * Fixes for cross compiling and building for Windows with configure
168      and make.
169    
170    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
171      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
172      Debian 6.
173    
174    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
175      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
176    
177    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
178      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
179      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
180      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
181    
182    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
183    
184    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
185      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
186      wrong main widget hidden state.
187    
188    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
189    
190    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
191      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
192      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
193      targets (--enable-debug).
194    
195    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
196    
197    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
198      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
199      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
200    
201    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
202      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
203    
204    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
205      a menu separator has been added.
206    
207    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
208      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
209

211      widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
212      lame green solid background :).

215      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
216

226    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
227    
228    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
229      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
230      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
231      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
232      a sampler the next time.
233    
234    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
235    
236    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
237    
238    * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
239      font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
240      to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
241      (default none).
242    
243    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
244      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
245      (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
246    
247    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
248      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
249      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
250      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
251    
252    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
253      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
254    
255    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
256      screwed.

258    * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
259      e.g. by other frontends.

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