160      instruments of the same file.
161    
162    * Adjusted configure check for libgig to detect its new --libdir
163      (impolitely forcing the user now to have at least libgig 3.3.0).

193      and make.
194    
195    * libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase,
196      as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13,
197      Debian 6.
198    
199    * Moving from old deprecated Qt3'ish custom event post handling
200      into regular asynchronous signal/slot strategy.
201    
202    * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
203      other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
204      been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
205      instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
206    
207    * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
208    
209    * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
210      been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to

212    
213    * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
214    
215    * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
216      traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
217      option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
218      targets (--enable-debug).
219    
220    * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
221    
222    * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
223      now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
224      (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
225    
226    * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
227      just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
228    
229    * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
230      a menu separator has been added.
231    
232    * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
233      and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
234

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

239    * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
240      disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.

251    * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
252    
253    * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
254      (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
255      settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
256      automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
257      a sampler the next time.
258    
259    * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
260    
261    * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
262

266      (default none).
267    
268    * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
269      the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.

271    
272    * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
273      running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
274      iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
275      main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
276    
277    * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
278      with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
279    
280    * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
281      screwed.

284      e.g. by other frontends.

287      e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
288      (fixes segfault on device changes)
