My SoundTracker resouces

Here is my collection of resources related to SoundTracker and maybe the tracker music in general. The site is under the permament construction and will be updated time to time. The main ST site is here.

Stable release

Currently it is 0.6.8. Currently there are 2 patches from Willy Foobar avaliable for this release: #1 and #2 (these patches fix compilation warnings and probably JACK driver crash occasionally reported by various persons but still not reproduced by me). These patches are slightly adjusted by me to be applyable with usual "patch" command. Sure cuurent release contains some bugs (the bug list is TODO for me, some info can be found at XM effects description).

Gtk+-2 port

The work is still under the progress. The current code snapshot is here. It's in general working and even sometimes usable :), but still there is much work to finish the port.

The main things are to do to finish the port are:

Single click doesn't work in the fileselector (and it's better to use the filechooser instead);
Huge CPU overhead (partially fixed);
Is very unstable (partially fixed). File—>exit works good, but closing the main window leads to the crash;
Contains a lot of obsolete code.
Minor bug with selections, up and down buttons in the tracker fonts dialog
Make lists "zebrine"
MIDI works something strange (also in 0.6.8-gtk1). It doesn't work at some systems where it has to;
some CPU-consuming code in the instrument list selection callback (really in the callback);
Change option-menu in keys.c with notebook (like in audioconfig.c) for better widget sizes' behaviour;
Fix mouse click at oscilloscopes (not only channel numbers) turn off/on channels;
Understand why tracker scrolling is such CPU-consuming (compared to ST-Gtk+-1). Maybe it's a GTK+2.6.7 and is fixed in the modern release?;
Doesn't remember which font is selected for the tracker. To fix;
ESD driver reported to produce greater delay at start than in ST-gtk1;
Native Alsa 1.x driver: make Alsa 1.x the requirement instead of 0.9.x; make sound device opening non-blocking, but give error dialog instead when the device is busy; optimize GUI (maybe with table) -- no idea :-(; problems with time estimation; signedness handling; add avalable devices navigation (from csound->rtalsa.c);
Chech whether some str functions needed to be replaced with gtk_utf_(strlen, offset_to_pointer and so on);
Return old-style tracker separation bars up to the top of the tracker (near tracker.c->660);
ESC for Cancel, Enter for Ok keybindings in dialogs;
Check and clean all gtk_dialog()s;

Provide more info in gtk_about_dialog
