Web: http://www.solfege.org Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/solfege/files/ Mirror: ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/solfege Bug tracker: http://bugs.solfege.org Here is a new snaphot from the devel branch. At the end there is a copy from the release notes posted on www.solfege.org. The interested changes are: * Lots of bug fixes. * More work on the new mpd code * More work on and documentation of the rhythmdictation and rhythmdictation2 modules. * Changes to the windows installer. It now supports SVG images. Lets hope it works on other computers than mine. We can add more features to the rhythmdictation-modules, they are quite minimal now. But we should be careful adding things, since we must maintain it forever when added. The mpd.parser code is not complete yet. Pickup bars are not supported yet. I will add a \partial command similar to what LilyPond have. Bar-line check (the | character) are ignore now. >From http://www.solfege.org/Solfege/ReleaseNotes-3-19 * Bug fixes: ** Accels config in preferences window. ** Use different API querying the screen resolution to avoid segfaul on debian lenny. ** Added.set_property that let us hide time signatures and bar lines ** Fix for windows users: strftime does only accept str, so lets not need it with unicode strings ** statistics bug fix: handle the deletion of the @@tests@@ table correctly. ** frontpage: Escape backslash and apostrophe used in titles ** Make elembuilder handle questions where the answer is only one element. Fixed by Andre Maute ** idbyname: fix it so that tests work when expert mode is selected. Fixes: http://www.solfege.org/SITS-Incoming/CrashInSol-faSyllableTest ** Upgrade debugtree.txt to the latest file format. This fixes an issue reported in many automated bug reports: http://www.solfege.org/SITS-Incoming/NoDescription-MU ** win32: fix importing of old format front page files. It was broken on win32 due to different os.sep ** Make idbyname forget the current question when we change which questions to ask for in expert-mode. Closes bug #209 Thanks to Ralf Hain for reporting this. * mpd: ** remove some old and unused code ** an empty staff will fill the entire width of the displayer ** a combination of \transpose and \relative have always messed up octaves if changing octaves using ' or ,. We need to merge this fix to the stable branch too, as soon as we are sure it does not break anything. ** added the \rhythmstaff command * Workaround to bugs.solfege.org/205 * Rewrite singinterval to use the new mpd.elems api * Show dialog explaining things if the database is locked. * singinterval: don't show bar lines or time signatures * linux: Added a tool (available on the Help menu) that downloads and compiles ALSA drivers. * ExerciseView: Don't use gtk.SizeGroup when we display many exercises since there are performance issues with it. * RhythmWidget: ** insert/overwrite mode ** svg images for the buttons * Change rhythmwidget2 so that elements and bars are defined in question blocks and not in the header. * Document the rhythmwidget and rhythmwidget2 modules. * Rhythm dicatation exercises: Display both the users answer and the correct answer when the user gives up. * The windows installer is now built using gtk-bundle from ftp://ftp.gtk.org * front page editor: escape titles and file names in saved files, so that ', " and \ are handled correctly. * win32: Look in "My documents/GNU Solfege/exercises" for the users front pages files. * win32: The windows installer is done with gtk+-bundle now, and it has SVG support now. -- Tom Cato Amundsen <[email protected]> http://www.solfege.org/ GNU Solfege - free ear training http://www.gnu.org/software/solfege/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
