A lot of changes once again. Hopefully this improved support
for external packages will make qtecasound more usable at
the moment... I chose snd and emacs as the default editors,
but as always, I'm open to suggestions... ;) There're some
promising wave editors out there, but none of them offer the
same kind of reliability as does snd... And, oh yes, real
musicians do it all in emacs. >;)
Btw; Does anyone know what has happened to linux-audio-dev mailing
list? For some time now, I haven't been able to send messages
to the list during...
Changes since last development release (1.5.6r5):
020999 (v1.5.7r5)
- added: qtecasound - chainsetup window now has a wave-edit
button which loads the active file into a external
wave editor; defaults to "snd", can be changed by
changing the value of "x-wave-editor" in
~/.ecasoundrc
- added: qtecasound - support for external text editors
(can be launched from session window) - saves the
active chainsetup to a text file, loads it to an
editor and afterwards updates file's content back
to ecasound - if "x-text-editor-use-getenv true"
is specified in ~/.ecasoundrc, ecasound uses
EDITOR environment variable if it's available,
otherwise value of "x-default-text-editor" is
used ... an of course, default value for this is
the ultimate musicians tool: emacs! ;)
- changed: qtecasound - some minor changes to session and
chainsetup widgets
- changed: .ews format (wave view cache files) has changed,
ecasound can still read the old format
- changed: qtecasound - "activate" button changed to a
"change status" button which rotates through
inactive->active->connected->inactive ...
- fixed: qtecasound - enabling/disabling chains sometimes
resulted in program crashes
- fixed: all structs found in ecasound source code now
use the standard type definations from sys/type.h
(format "[u_]int'bits'_t") - this should solve some
compatibility problems with non-x86 platforms -
thanks for Guenter Geiger for notifying about these
- fixed: a few fixes to the new double-buffering system -
lots of buffer parameter fine-tuning
