- removed window geometry from default template, TODO add a menu option for creating
templates, which might not contain certain types of data, including geometry (rj)
- fixed bug if jack zombifies during project load which led to a crash (rj)
+ - Fixed MusE failing with non-RT kernel. Now falls back to normal 'OTHER' scheduling. (Tim p4.0.16)
+ - Fixed dummy audio thread not running FIFO with RT kernel - set PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED. (Tim p4.0.16)
10.02.2011:
- added cut/copy/paste and keyboard shortcuts to wave editor (rj)
