Sat Jul  3 07:24:17 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* gqmpeg.h, README, gqmpeg.spec: Release 0.6.3

Sat Jul  3 06:54:45 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* io_mpg123.c: Added mpg123 0.59r support, which introduced escape
	sequences to it's standard verbose output... THE BLASPHEMY!
	Also added more debug output, so I can catch things like this in the
	future without jumping through hoops.

Fri Jul  2 12:12:52 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* io_mpg123.[ch], io_mpg123_cfg.c: Add freeamp option, and made it
	work with freeamp 1.2.3. Freeamps's mpg123 emulator is flaky, but works
	well enough... Probably won't work with older versions of freeamp?
	If mpg123 is not found at startup, then search for freeamp and enable
	the option if found.

Fri Jul  2 10:20:43 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* io_mpg123.c: Make it work again with freeamp. Print a warning when a
	version prior to 0.59o is detected, and when the version can not be
	detected.

Fri Jul  2 09:50:37 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* config.c: Properly sort skin names, since we now have the complete
	paths listed.

Thu Jul  1 20:00:32 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* playlist.c: Add playlist length recount when loading headers.
	* playlist-window.c: (playlist_window_clist_populate) Check if the
	playlist window is open before attempting to add items to the window.
	When a song's length is zero (no header loading), print nothing for
	time.

Thu Jul  1 19:28:45 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* io_mpg123.c: Fix segmentation fault at g_hook_next_valid when mpg123
	exits unexpectedly (crash or kill). Also doubled timeout when using
	http (to 20 seconds).

	NOTE: Looking at the code I see that I am still using an interface to
	mpg123 using code written when gqmpeg was begun. Since then I have
	learned a bit... I see that buffer over-runs can happen in many places
	I will have to add 20+ checks for this, or move to a more elegent
	solution. The crash caused when mpg123 exits was caused by not checking
	a) that getc was not EOF, and b) that the buf_ptr was within allocated
	memory. Hence we scribbled all over memory until something broke...

Tue Jun 29 17:34:14 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* playlist.c (playlist_update_by_path): New function to reload all
	occurences of path.

	in a system dir, for example /usr/local/share/gqmpeg/skins.
	* Makefile: re-create config.h if Makefile changes, since the PREFIX
	may have changed. Also added dist_clean target to remove things such
	as config.h before a release.

Tue Jun 29 14:36:17 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* mixer.c, Makefile: Applied patches to support native audio on

	* all files: Major reworking resulting in too many changes and new 
	files to list. To Summarize: Modularized the mpg123 interface, adding
	new players for file types should be semi-easy now. Added http://
	support (shoutcast), added multiple file selection and dnd to playlist
	window. Moved similar functions into new files. Updated the move/copy/
	rename/delete dialogs (copied from GQview).
	* Makefile: attempt to shorten this thing, removed unneeded lines

	file, if that works, notify me and I will revert back)

Sat Mar 27 12:06:09 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* main.c, MAkefile: Add FreeBSD cpu percentage code, patch submitted

Tue Mar 23 09:48:19 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* gqmpeg.h, songinfo.c, tagutil.c: Add newer genres, based on patch
	from "Yick W. Tse" <ywtse@mailcity.com>

Tue Mar 23 09:15:57 1999  John Ellis  <johne@bellatlantic.net>

	* playerio.c (stop_playing_file): Send SIGINT instead of SIGTERM to
	mpg123 to stop it, this seems to fix the problem of opening /dev/dsp

    Shuffle/Repeat_Button now has a status light option.
  * Fixed a serious bug causing segfault when GQmpeg is run on a system for the

    specified in the skindata file.
0.3.4 (8-29-98)
  > Added right click context menus to the main window and playlist lists.
  > Added ID3 tag reading, by default this option is off. When a tag is
    available the title of the song is set to the tag's title. Songs with
    no tag revert to the filename. Tag support is read-only.
  > Added a 'smart window placement' option. When enabled (default) the window
    will snap to the edges of the screen when within 8 pixels. Also when
    enabled, the small mode always moves closest to the nearest edge, but
    within the area of the normal mode.
  > Option to save the window position and the window mode (normal/small).
  > Ability to add entire directories to the playlist by right clicking on a
    directory in the directory list. Directories can be added recursively too.
  - Middle clicking on a file adds it to the playlist, middle clicking on the
    playlist plays that song. (Double left click was and is there, but this is
    for those that hate double clicking)
  - Song info available on most right click menus, only shows ID3 info for now.
  - Available skins are now listed on the skin tab of the config dialog.
  - Now when 'save playlist bettween sessions' and 'play on startup' are
    enabled GQmpeg continues with the song that was playing on the last exit.
  - Added another file type, .mp2 to the filter.
  - Now when clicking on an area with no button, but not dragging to move the
    window, the window is raised.
  - Some major rewrites of some code, hoping no new bugs were introduced.
0.3.3  (8-22-98)
  > Removed window decorations, new Iconify_Button type for added to iconify
    the window.
  > To move the window, just click and drag anywhere there is no button.
  > New Mixer_Button type, the mixer can be changed under config->General.
  > Skins can have an alternate mode (can be a smaller version, for example),
    and added a Alt_Skin_Button type to switch skins, the alternate skin is
    defined with the same file format as the normal one, however it's data file
    is named skindata_alt. If there is no skindata_alt file, alternate skin mode
    is disabled.
  > Updated the default skin for no window decorations and added a smaller
    alternate skin.
  - GQmpeg now attempts to read the HOME environment variable as a last chance
    effort to figure out the home directory. If it still can not find a valid
    home directory, it gracefully exits with an error message.
  - The rc file themes renamed to HOME/.gqmpeg/gtkrc, was gtkrc-gqmpeg.
  - New tab in config window called startup, all relevent options moved there.
  * Reformatted this file (README) to fit within 80 character wide terminals.
  * skindata files: changed Mpegplayer_Item to Mpeglayer_Item (typo)
                    changed Mpegver_Item to Mpegversion_Item
0.3.2  (8-20-98)
  > SKIN support! (why only a minor version change? Because skin support could
    be buggy and I want 0.4.0 to be stable.
  > New skin tab on config dialog. It contains an entry to specify the default
    skin. the default skin must reside in HOME/.gqmpeg/skins
  - The gqmpeg config files are now all under HOME/.gqmpeg/*
  - Added patch provided by Jeff Glover which adds #ifdef's for cpu utilization
    display to work on SGI IRIX 5.3 and 6.5
  * Fixed bug where when first starting GQmpeg and opening the playlist window,
    the files were not being sorted.
0.3.1  (8-18-98)
  > Added option to specify a custom output sampling rate.
  > Added option to show hidden files (those that begin with a dot).
  > Added buttons in playlist to move a song to the top or end (words
   'beginning' and 'bottom' too many letters) of a list.
  - Added .mpg and .mpeg types to the file list.
  - Home directory code fixed.
  - Added patch provided by Heiner Schepers which adds #ifdef's for cpu
    utilization display to work on Sun Solaris 2.5.1
  * Fixed bug where GQmpeg would sigsegv if you pressed move down in the
    playlist and had not selected a song in the playlist.
  * Fixed bugs when removing songs from a playlist when playing or paused.

0.3.0  (8-16-98)
  > Added option of saving shuffle and repeat modes in a playlist, and the
    option of disabling reading these modes from a playlist.
  > Shuffle is now sane, and respects repeat mode. Prev and Next buttons now
    go through the shuffled songs instead of regenerating a random song on
    each press.
  > Added a go to home directory button in the playlist dialog.
0.2.2  (7-30-98)
