Description:
 Qjackctl is a simple Qt application to control
the JACK sound server daemon, specific for the
Linux Audio Desktop infrastructure.

Written in C++ around the Qt3 toolkit for X11,
most exclusively using Qt Designer.

Provides a simple GUI dialog for setting several
JACK daemon parameters, which are properly saved
between sessions, and a way control of the status
of the audio server daemon. With time, this
primordial interface has become richer by
including a enhanced patchbay and connection
control features.

Changelog:
 0.2.19   2005-11-19  MRU patchbay selection, Mac
OS X and other fixes.

- Connections widget views are now properly
refreshed after renaming client/ports (aliases).

- Disabled system tray and ALSA sequencer support
on configure time, whenever building for MacOSX as
default.

- Fixed the major issues with selecting an audio
interface on Mac OSX; the button the right of the
interface combo is now much better looking than it
was before; input/output channel counts are also
updated automatically now (thanks to Jesse
Chappell for the patch).

- Prevent the setting of the coreaudio device id
on the jackd command line (-n) whenever the
default interface is being selected.

- The connections and patchbay windows are now
allowed to have a wider connection lines frame
panel; splitter width sizes are now persistent
across application sessions (thanks to Filipe
Tomás for the hint).

- Activation toggling feedback on the patchbay
widget has been fixed; additionally and as found
convenient, the most recently used patchbay
definitions can now be loaded immediately by
selecting from a drop-down list widget, which
replaces the old static patchbay name status text,
and adds a lil'icon too :)

- All widget captions changed to include proper
application title prefix.

- Attempt to bring those aging autoconf templates
to date; sample SPEC file for RPM build is now
being included and generated at configure time.

- The current selected device is now shown with a
checkmark on the device selection menu(s), while
on the settings dialog.

- Set to use QApplication::setMainWidget() instead
of registering the traditional lastWindowClosed()
signal to quit() slot, just to let the -geometry
command line argument have some effect on X11.


0.2.18   2005-07-18  The mantra of bugfixes stays
on.

- A freezing and endless loop condition on the
patchbay socket item duplication (copy) has been
fixed.

- Fixed output disability when messages limit
option is turned off   (thanks again to Wolfgang
Woehl for spotting this one).


0.2.17   2005-06-17  Systemic I/O Latency settings
are in.

- Systemic I/O Latency settings are now featured
for the alsa, oss and coreaudio backends, letting
you specify the known latency of external hardware
for client aware compensation purposes (thanks to
Wolfgang Woehl, for the reminder).

- Update on last backstage changes to the
coreaudio backend options (due to Stéphane Letz.
Thanks).


0.2.16   2005-06-13  OSS device name selection and
Mac OS X breakthrough.

- ALSA sequencer client/port name changes are now
properly detected on the MIDI connections widget
(as noted by Chris Cannam. Thanks).

- Long overdue transport buttons (rewind, backward
and forward) finally   landed onto the main
control window, at last :).

- Duplication (copy) of patchbay socket items was
added.

- Do not ever try to start the JACK server if
there's one already found running, on which case
the client-only mode of operation is then
activated (as kindly suggested by Orm Finnendahl,
thanks).

- After several Mac OS X user requests, ALSA/MIDI
sequencer support is now an option, otherwise
detected at configure time and conditionally
compiled in if, and only if, ALSA is found
available (which has been a primordial assumption
on Linux systems:). Ah, and that just makes for
the blind inclusion of another backend driver
option: coreaudio.

- Actual OSS device selection menu now featured on
setup dialog; these adds to the device selection
button menus for the OSS driver settings.

- Delayed geometry setup of windows upon startup
was added as an optional workaround to subtle
problems due to window decoration information not
being available at window creation time on some
window managers (as patch proposed by Dirk
Jagdmann. Thanks).

- Fixed some minor but rather old bug that was
quitting the application abruptly, when one
switches off the system tray icon while the main
application widget is hidden.

- Cancel is now an option when creating a new
patchbay definition.

- Context menus are finally littered with icons.

- Minor configure and Makefile install fixes, as
Debian and Mac OS X specialties. Also, install
does the right thing with target file modes
(thanks to Matt Flax and Ebrahim Mayat, for
pointing these out).
