Hi Guenter, all,
Now we can take a look if our enhancements survived ....
I think they did. I did some work last night to clean up the jsarlo patches and to integrate them with recent changes from Miller. While I was in there, I checked on the possibility of moving them out to command-line options. I just checked them in.
On the CVS devel_0_36 branch, you can find two new command-line options:
-guishadow -- add discrete shadows to basic objects
This is in a fairly good state. I took out my earlier #ifdefs and substituted a pre-existing macro (EXTRAPIX) I think accounted for the difference between Linux and Mac shadow appearance.
-cordcolor [col] -- change color of audio wires, with opt hex #rrggbb spec
This is slightly more "beta" quality. The default color if simply type "-cordcolor" is the dirty yellow you all love. If you prefer a fetching magenta, type "-cordcolor #bb33bb" (or "-cordcolor #b3b", as I just discovered). Currently there is no sanity check for a properly formed color, and strange behavior that I can't control, but have traced back to g_editor.c:103, glist_deselectline. Feel free if you want to tackle it...
The default behavior for all platforms should make Frank happy :) (e.g., no visible change from Miller's 0.36-0 behavior).
