Notes for 5.11
==============

New Opcodes:
    tabsum to sum sections of ftables
    p5glove — not working very well yet
    MixerSetLevel_i — an init-time only version of MixerSetLevel
    wiimote opcodes to allow games controller to be read directly in
       Csound.
    mp3in — like diskin but reads MP3 files
    doppler — details to follow
    filebit — reports bit size of files

New Gen:
    None (well actually there is a gen49 to read mp3 files)

Modified Opcodes and Gens:
    Added rounding bin code to pvsscale
    Added NP2 support for ftload and ftsave
    GEN23 totally rewritten to be more consistent in what constitutes
       a separator and comments. (Still no /* */ comments)

Bugs fixed:
    Use of automatic numbering of ftables reuses table numbers
    seed with positive argument was wrong
    sprints with an empty string printed wrong data
    mute now works with both numeric and named instruments
    Comments in new parser fixed
    Byteorder in loading files fixed
    Small fixes in diskin, and in tablexkt

System Changes:
    Revised Windows installer
    SConstruct now builds completely independent shared libraries
       for Python, Lua, and Java wrappers.
    New Parser almost usable
    Redrawing of graphs fixed so that only selected ones get redrawn.
    RT-alsa more forgiving on near sample rates
    It is possible to have the score generated by an external program
         rather than using standard score format using
         <CScore bin=”translater”> to call the program translater on the
         score data
    lpc_export fixed
    Removed limit on macro names length
    PMAX, the number of arguments to a score event has been reduced
    by 2, and an overflow system introduced so GENs can have
    arbitrary numbers of arguments.

API:
    Increased API version to 2.1.
    New API function pointer ldmemfile2withCB() which is
       a version of ldmemfile() allowing a callback to be set and called
       exactly once to process the MEMFIL buffer after it is loaded.
    csound->floatsize set; zero in earlier versions
    GetChannelLock added

Internal:
    usual collection of gratuitous minor changes, layout and comments
