 Qsampler - A LinuxSampler Qt GUI Interfa
  ChangeLog
- CVS HEAD
+ SVN TRUNK
+ * Sampler channel and instrument file requester support for
+   other than GIG engine instrument files (*gig; *.dls) has
+   been added, making roads for the newer SFZ and SF2 engines
+   instrument files (*.sfz; *.sf2).
+ * General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place.
+ * Initial widget geometry and visibility persistence logic has
+   been slightly revised as much to avoid crash failures due to
+   wrong main widget hidden state.
+ * General source tree layout and build configuration change.
+ * Automatic crash-dump reports, debugger stack-traces (gdb), back-
+   traces, whatever, are being introduced as a brand new configure
+   option (--enable-stacktrace) and default enabled on debug build
+   targets (--enable-debug).
+ * Attempt to fix broken instrument list model/view on Qt >= 4.6.
+ * Device parameter spin-box default maximum has been set higher:
+   now at a magic 24-bit limit (16777216) instead of older 16-bit
+   (65536), possibly fixing bug #136.
+ * LADISH Level 1 support has been added: SIGUSR1 signal trap
+   just makes it a shortcut to File/Save.
+ * MIDI Device Status menu is disabled when no MIDI device exists;
+   a menu separator has been added.
+ * Window manager's close button was found missing from the Devices
+   and Instruments widgets when on Qt >= 4.5, now fixed.
+ * MIDI activity indicator on channel strips and MIDI device status
+   widgets is now implemented as a flashing green LED, instead of a
+   lame green solid background :).
+ * Global configuration state is now explicitly saved/committed to
+   disk when View/Options... dialog changes are accepted and applied.
+ * Czech (cs) translation added (by Pavel Fric).
+.2.2  2009-08-01  New release cycle.
+ * Russian (qsampler_ru.ts by Alexandre Prokoudine) makes it as
+   brand first translation delivered. Thanks and welcomes whom
+   ever may follow ;)
+ * Converted obsolete QMessageBox forms to standard buttons.
+ * Added support for runtime max. voices / disk streams setting
+   (accessible from the "Options..." dialog). Those fine tuning
+   settings will be saved in case the user modified them and
+   automatically restored to the sampler when reconnecting to
+   a sampler the next time.
+ * Grayed/disabled palette color group fix for dark color themes.
+ * Fait-divers: desktop menu file touched to openSUSE conventions.
+ * Due to some trouble with newer Qt >= 4.4 applications regarding
+   font size configuration, a new global user option is now available
+   to the rescue: View/Options... /Display/Other/Base font size
+   (default none).
+ * Attempt to load Qt's own translation support and get rid of
+   the ever warning startup message, unless built in debug mode.
+   (transaction by Guido Scholz, while on qsynth-devel, thanks).
+ * Only one application instance is now allowed to be up and
+   running, with immediate but graceful termination upon startup
+   iif an already running instance is detected, which will see its
+   main widget shown up automatically (Qt/X11 platform only).
+ * Messages file logging makes its first long overdue appearance,
+   with user configurable settings in View/Options.../Server/Logging.
+ * Bugfix in sampler channel dialog, driver combo boxes' content were
+   screwed.
+ * Automatically add & remove channel strips as they were removed
+   e.g. by other frontends.
+ * Refresh device management dialog when device informations changed,
+   e.g. on changes caused by other frontends
+   (fixes segfault on device changes)
+ * Implemented MIDI device activity windows, selectable from the
+   "View" main menu.
+ * Implemented MIDI activity indicator on channel strips.
+ * Added FX Sends Dialog to Channel Strips.
+ * Color pallete fix for the instrument name display in channel
+   strip, particularly notorious on Mac OS X builds.
+ * Added dialog when the application exits which lets the user
+   decide whether to keep the LinuxSampler running or not.
+.2.1  2007-12-06  Qt4 migration was complete.
+ * Added recent new support of libgig for retrieving instrument
+   names in avery fast way. If libgig provides this feature, then
+   the respective name retrieval setting in qsampler is enabled by
+   default.
+ * The current selected/activated channel-strip is now visually
+   evident while in the application workspace (highlighting).
+ * Make View/Menubar and Toolbar shortcuts accessible even though
+   the main menu and toobar are not visible.
+ * Audio routing table is initially hidden in the dialog, when
+   creating a new sampler channel.
+ * README requirements and configuration notes update.
+ * Disable OK button in sampler channel form and MIDI instrument
+   form if no valid engine is selected (to avoid bothering newbie
+   users with confusing LSCP syntax errors when using the UI the
+   first time).
+ * Fixed creation of devices (don't try to set device parameters
+   which the user did not touch in the device creation dialog).
+ * Added Windows file path support.
+ * Fixed win32/qmakefile and win32/config.h so that it compiles
+   under win32.
+ * Qt4 port of the application.
+.1.5  2007-10-15 Five months later a fifth is heard.
+ * Added support for LSCP escape sequences to allow loading and
+   mapping instrument files with special characters in their
+   filename, as well as special characters for instrument names
+   and instrument map names (requires LSCP v1.2 on sampler side).
+ * Added new button "Edit" to the channel strips, which probably
+   does exactly what you think it does: it opens an appropriate
+   instrument editor application; the channel instrument editor
+   tool is also accessible from the main menu and toolbar.
+ * Application icon is now installed to ${prefix}/share/pixmaps;
+   application desktop entry file is now included in installation;
+   spec file (RPM) is now a bit more openSUSE compliant.
+ * Crash fix on double-clicking on a empty instrument list.
+.1.4  2007-05-04 Almost another year has gone by.
+ * Channel button colors have changed: yellow for mute and
+   cyan for solo is now the rule, but note that this color
+   highlighting is only rendered on some widget styles.
+ * Master sampler volume slider/spinbox combo is now featured.
+ * Initial support for sampler channel FX sends, while saving
+   the session state, only at code-level.
+ * Sampler channel setup dialog does not mandate for valid nor
+   existing instrument file name.
+ * Revised error verbosity in general and on session load/save;
+   hour-glass wait cursor is now displayed on session load/save;
+   keyboard shortcuts changed on MIDI instruments view context;
+   improved channel strip arrangement on session open/load;
+   instrument map entry removal confirmation (as optional);
+   corrected some tooltip text strings.
+ * Most top-level widgets were missing the normal-widget flag,
+   which were causing some sticky size behavior while on some
+   window managers.
+ * Added preliminary MIDI instrument mapping support; now
+   with an instrument list widget and editing capabilities;
+   MIDI instrumeent map program numbers are now displayed in
+   the range 1-128, instead of the internal 0-127.
+ * GPL address update.
+.1.3   2006-06-01 Its been a long year isn't it?
+ * Changed deprecated copyright attribute to license,
+   on qsampler.spec (RPM).
+ * Added configure support for x86_64 libraries (UNTESTED).
+ * Optional specification of alternate liblscp and libgig
+   installation paths have been added to configure command
+   arguments (--with-liblscp, --with-libgig).
+ * Whenever the listing of actual instrument names is not an
+   option (e.g. due to lack of libgig support), the whole
+   number of selectable instrument items is now being graciously
+   increased from just the bare 8 (eight) right up through 100
+   (one hundred), on the sampler channel setup dialog.
+ * The selection buttons, on the right of the Instrument, Audio
+   and MIDI devices combo-boxes, on the sampler channel dialog,
+   are now expected to be a little better looking than it was
+   before, at least for those Mac OS X eyes.
+ * Minor fixing on the initial messages dock-window height.
+ * Audio output channel routing configuration finally hits
+   the sampler channel dialog, at last! (EXPERIMENTAL).
+ * All widget captions changed to include proper application
+   title name prefix.
+ * Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates to date;
+   sample SPEC file for RPM build is now being included and
+   generated at configure time.
+ * Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead of
+   registering the traditional lastWindowClosed() signal
+   to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry command line
+   argument have some effect on X11.
  * Added MUTE/SOLO buttons to individual channel strips.

 .1.2   2005-06-23 Even minor workings needs a rest.
  * Fixed output disability when messages limit option is
    turned off (thanks to Wolfgang Woehl for spotting this
    one, while on qjackctl).

    consistency, regarding the enumeration of available
    sampler engines, Audio and MIDI drivers.
  * [bug #13] Update instrument names list when a new
    instrument file is select on the channel setup dialog.
  * Show appropriate message in channel strip while loading
    an instrument.
  * Show libgig version in About box (in case libgig is used).

    drop is allowed, but it only makes sense for instrument
    files, each one prompting to create a new sampler channel.
  * Drag-and-drop to an existing channel strip is now also
    featured, allowing the in-place change of the channel
    sampler instrument file.
  * Actual instrument names are now optionally retrieved
