© 1992 by Delirium
Date 07.01.1993
V1.36 Changed the dtg_SetTimer function and made it public. Documentation
reworked. The player for FTM modules was enhanced (works now with
VBR on).
V1.35 Added a new tag (DTP_SubSongTest) for the subsong handling. Changed
some players to use this tag. Fixed a bug in the refresh routine of
the gadgets. It was caused by two exchanged pointers.
V1.34 Now finally the menus look (WFLG_NEWLOOKMENUS, GTMN_NewLookMenus)
correct under V39. If you open a window it will be opened on the
same screen as an already opened window this applies to the
requesters, too.
V1.33 DeliTracker's AppWindow feature can now handle drawers. If you drop
a drawericon the complete directory is scanned and inserted into
the module list. The maximum number of listelements was increased
to 9999. To give the user a bid more power two ARexx functions for
module list manipulation where implemented. A wrong set flag that
caused menu shortcuts being ignored under Kickstart V39 was fixed.
Changed the meaning of the mainwindow closegadget from Quit to Hide.
V1.32 Improved the ramdom routine. The TFMX_Pro and TFMX_7V Players are
now aware of 'unpacked' TFMX modules. For all that have lots of
songs we have written a ST/NT/PT song player.
V1.31 First version that will only run under Kickstart 2.0. The
asl.library is used instead of the req.library. Removed a small
bug in the gadget refresh routine. Fixed a bug in the timeout
function. Some minor improvements in the ProTracker and Mark II
players.
V1.30 Release Version. All docs were improved, updated and rewritten.
This is the first release of DeliTracker that comes without any
restrictions. We count on the fairness of the users and hope that
they continue to support good software.
V1.29 The OS 2.0 version of DeliTracker now is a commodity. This has
some advantages for the user i.e Hotkey support. Fixed a small
bug in the Arexx status routine. Boolean options now take <no|yes>
instead of <0|1> as argument. Due to Dominik's annoying complains
we changed the parsing routine to make it more csh-friendly ;-)
V1.28 Improved startup code. Changed decrunch support form inbuild code
to XPK V2 (XPK V1 had too many bugs).
V1.27 Reorganised source code to match our new internal labeling
convention. No new functions, but the code was improved.
The MED and OktaMED players now support 'MMD1' type modules.
V1.26 Some people complaind about the missing menu. For those we
re-implemented menus, the menu structure is slighly different
to those in V1.16. The 2.x Version of DeliTracker now presents
Errormessages with EasyRequestArgs() instead of the req.lib
TextRequest().
V1.25 Added pubscreen captability to DeliTracker_2.x. The OS 2.0
version now can be used on any pubscreen and works correct
with other default pubscreens than "Workbench". No functional
change was made for the OS 1.3 version (DeliTracker_1.3).
V1.24 DeliTracker now uses a much faster PowerPacker decrunch code.
Made a few internal improvements and some code changes to make
the future support of XPK easier.
V1.23 Implemented a fadeout mode for smooth transition between
modules. Reworked some pices of code to work more efficient.
V1.22 Some users complained about the randomplay routine. Now the
randomplay routine selects only modules that have not been
played (shuffleplay). Added EMS player. In the TFMX players
some light bugs where removed.
V1.21 DeliTracker resets the LED to the initial state after shutdown.
The defaultpath for the configuration file moved from S: to ENV:.
All players got a $VER: ID-string. Added several players.
V1.20 The old configfiles were replaced by userfriendly, editable ASCII
files which may contain modulelists. This and the songend feature
forced us to modify the playerinterface. To avoid another change
we decided to make our playerinterface Tag-Based (yea!). A patch
program was build to update old players and custommodules. A bug
in the timerallocation of the internal ProTracker player was fixed.
The internal Faster/Slower functions are now only used if the
internal interrupt generation is used. Due to the Hardware Reference
Manual the volume can range from 0-64 (65 values!), now DeliTracker
pays attention to this. Internal work revision !
V1.19 Added Randommode for playing modules in random order. Added support
for Songend detection and made this feature available for some players.
Added Timeout option for automatical change of modules after a user
selectable time. Added Appendmode for selecting modules from different
directorys. If the Appwindow feature is used DeliTracker converts the
LOCK to a real path. Redesign of the prefswindow to match the new
funtionality. Added support for imploder packed modules. A player for
Sonic Arranger modules was adapted by the author of this soundsystem.
Internal work revision !
V1.18 Added shortcut support for volume and balance. Fixed little bug in
the Stringhandling: If you save a configfile after you had selected
a module and then removed it from memory, the configfile contained
the module name/path. That caused DeliTracker to load this module if
this configfile was loaded. Now in this case the module name/path is
not set. Internal ST/NT Code completely changed. Now the routine is
based on Protracker. This version now should play every SoundTracker
like module correct (especially those ProTracker modules that didn't
work). Internal Players: Custom, PT, NT, ST15, ST31, StarTrekker w/o
AM sounds. Some new players where adapted, too.
V1.17 Menus removed, because most users didn't used them anyway. From now,
you can use shortcuts for almost every operation. Fixed very small
bug in an arexx-routine. Added SIDMon II player.
V1.16 Changed the the playerinterface (Now we have one reserved
librarybase for future compatibility). Optimisations and bugfixes
in the internal stringhandling routines. All Players that use the
DeliTracker internal timer interrupt as interrupt source now work
well with applications that use the serial.device. The complete
color decrunch stuff has been deleted. This has more reasons one of
them is that the Mousepointer is set "busy" if DeliTracker is busy
Added OktaMED 1.0 player.
V1.15 Changed the Playerinterface (hopefully the last time). Bugfix
in the callingsequence of external Playerroutines. Other things
fixed that could lead to a error. Code cleanup. Added FTM Player
First offical demo released.
V1.14 Changed Includefile (new functions for external players)
Player Config-Routine bugfixed.
Internal improvements
V1.13 First version for abergläubische Gemüter ;^)
Improved ExtLoad() routine.
V1.12 Added Rexx 'Eject' function. Little fixes in the internal
SoundTracker replay routine (Some trackers save the wrong
volume >$40)
V1.11 Menu layout is done via ROM-Functions (2.x only).
Added $VER: ID-String for 2.x version comand.
Made a special demoversion (mainly for Amiga'91)
V1.10 The audiochannels are only allocated while a module is loaded.
V1.09 Subsongnumber bug fixed.
Rework of the external player interface
V1.08 Improvements in the Configfile (Subsongnummer).
Improvements in some ARexx-Functions (optional Parameters).
V1.07 DeliTracker (KS2.x only) is now a AppWindow, that means you can
simply drag modules onto the DeliTracker window and then they are
played.
V1.06 DeliTracker is captable of being a Default-Tool.
Codeoptimisations.
Implemented Retry-Option when the audiochannels are allocated
V1.05 Added Quickstart.
Added Colordecrunch.
V1.04 Improved external playerinterface (seperate handling of Volume
and Balance, configuration for external players). Added some
gadgets in the Prefswin. Little optimisations in the main code.
New Players: Music-Assembler and MED 3.11
Fixed last Gadgetrefreshbug.
V1.03 Rearanging of the Preferences-Windo
