pmidi alsa midi client / News: Recent posts

Rolls up fixes that were in cvs but never before released.

• Fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pmidi/+bug/316265
• Improve config for glib
• Document the -v flag in the usage message
• Update email address
• Update/simplify config and rpm spec files

This release is also known as 'not quite a whole decade after the previous one'.

The original CVS repo has been converted to Mercurial. The complete history
should still be available. The old cvs repo is still available at present but
it will probably be removed fairly soon.

The tag names have been changed from the form REL-1-6-0 to v1.6.0 since the
only reason that they did not originally use the normal dotted notation was
that it was not allowed in CVS tags.

This new version of pmidi will silence all notes when it is interrupted. This has been an often requested feature.

There are also documentation updates and all warnings resulting from ALSA and autoconf changes have been fixed.

The command line MIDI player for ALSA has released version 1.5.5. This release contains changes to build with the currently released version of ALSA 0.9-rc6.

This release just has a minor bug fix which allows midi files that have notes in the tempo track to play in the same way that they do with playmidi or timidity.

The same fix has also been released as version 1.4.2 which should work with ALSA-0.5 as shipped with SuSE 7.2 for example. This is not tested so feedback would be appreciated.

This is an update to track the another ALSA API change. Should enable building with the current ALSA CVS.

The pmidi of CVS has been updated to reflect the latest ALSA sequencer changes. A new release will be made soon.

An updated version of pmidi has been released. It adds configuration and documentation updates which have been submitted. See the changelog for details. There are no functionality changes.

This is another update to track the ALSA sequencer API as in the current CVS.

The pmidi CVS has been updated to compile with the current ALSA CVS.

The 1.5.0 version of pmidi is only needed if you are using ALSA 0.6.0 from CVS after about 29 Sep 2000. Otherwise you should continue to use pmidi version 1.4.1
