*** AMIDI-Plug 0.7 ***

 - added a transpose function for playback in different keys

 - added a drumshift function for playback with different
   drumsets and percussions

 - the audacious plugin now uses the audacious vfs api for midi
   file loading (note: audacious versions older than 1.1.0 are
   no longer supported)

 - small fixes in configure script for gtk+1 (xmms)


 *** AMIDI-Plug 0.6 ***

 - added support for lyrics and text comments contained in
   MIDI files

 - fluidsynth backend now supports multiple soundfonts loading

 - default location for backend install has been changed to
   (libdir)/amidi-plug instead of (datadir)/amidi-plug ,
   user can change location in configure too

 - a couple of changes in preferences dialog (added apply button;
   improved the way used to commit options changes in preferences
   dialog, in order to prevent changes during playback)

 - stability fixes in preferences dialog for gtk+1 (xmms)

 - stability fix in preferences dialog for the (well, unlikely)
   case that there is no backend available/selected

 - trying to play a MIDI file without a valid backend selected
   will now trigger a warning dialog


 *** AMIDI-Plug 0.5 ***

 - amidi-plug has been redesigned and gmodulized; now it uses
   backends (loaded at runtime) for midi events handling;
   it doesn't depend from ALSA anymore, only one of its backend
   (the ALSA one) does

 - new dummy backend (for analysis and testing purposes)

 - new fluidsynth backend (software synth backend that can
   pipe audio into effect and output plugins of the player)

 - written alsa backend (basically does everything amidi-plug
   was able to do in previous versions)

 - new configuration panel and new config system (pcfg)

 - alsa code: fixed incorrect range conversion in volume functions

 - alsa code: fixed crash occurring on system where alsa is
   installed but the alsa sequencer is not installed

 - internal improvements and fixes (well, changed a lot :))


 *** AMIDI-Plug 0.2 ***

 - added an option to pre-calculate the length of each midi
   file (when get_song_info is called, i.e. when files are
   added in a playlist)

 - added volume checking function (LIRC and other remote
   control plugins should work correctly when changing volume now)

 - internal improvements and fixes


 *** AMIDI-Plug 0.1 ***
