+ <P> ------------------ 0.38.1 -------------------------- + + Fixed two bugs that crashed Pd when deleting number boxes in certain + situations. + + <P> ------------------ 0.38.0 -------------------------- + + <P> The big change is queued graphics updates, which apply (so far) + to tables and number/symbol boxes. The IEM GUIS aren't enqueued yet. + This along with a better graphics update buffering scheme makes Pd's + graphics run much better. + + <P> Support for cutting/copying/pasting text between boxes and between Pd and + other applications. + + <P> Dialogs for setting and saving path, libs-to-load-on-startup, and some + other things. This and the audio settings can be saved automatically to + the appropriate repository (.pdsettings on linux; registry on MS windows; + "Preferences" on Mac.) + + <P> "Print" printout goes to the Pd window by default. You can revert to + the old (standard error) behavior with the "-stderr" startup flag. + + <P> The "gui" TK script can now start Pd up (previously Pd had to be + started first.) This is needed for Pd to work as an "App" on Mac. + + <P> new filter objects: cpole~, fpole~, etc... these will get used in the + upcoming Techniques chapter 8. + + <P> Objects whose creation failed get a distinctive outline; if they are + already inside a patch they sprout inlets and outlets as necessary to + preserve connections. + + <P> Filenames in the "search path", etc., now may contain spaces, commas, + and semicolons. + + <P> bug fix: click on minaturized subpatch failed to "vis" it + + <P> bug fix: font size change crash reported by CK + + <P> Key bindings like control-Q now work even from within most dialogs. + + <P> The audio settings dialog now permits turning audio input and/or output + off without forgetting how many channels it should be when on. + + <P> RME Hammerfall ALSA support from Winfried -- but specify the number of + channels correctly or else Pd crashes. + + <P> portaudio (e.g., Mac) audio support fixed for inchans != outchans, + so the emi emagic can now be used 2-in. 6-out, for example. + + <P> (linux) The configure script can set the setuid flag on "make install". + The "-enable" flags to ./configure should now work correctly too. + + <P> atan2 had its inlets switched to conform to standard usage + <P> ------------------ 0.37.3 --------------------------
