TODO for cyclone
  * add folder class, so people forget about using tot for that purpose
  * plug import into file/open
  * reduce the number of warnings by:
    * initializing variables
    * adding parentheses
    * removed unused variable
    
0.3.0
  * Converted to standard version notation
  * Moved Makefile.pdlibbuilder to a standardized sub-directory,
  * Updated Makefile to properly conform to tips&tricks and updated email.
  
0.2.2beta5
  * Scope: fixed Tk trace on resize
  * Scope: added zoom.
  * Decided again to change version numbering. The current beta will lead to 0.2.2.
  
02-beta4
  * enlarged message buffer for Tk-message in Scope_drawfgxy to accomodate 
    larger int sizes.

02.-beta3
  * removed thread functionality from coll-help (only the relevant Windows 
    binary released)
  * merged pull request #10 to allow external pd-lib-builder
  * fixed building cyclist in Makefile on Windows
  * removed the thread functionality from coll as it causes distribution 
    problems for Windows. 
    Coll is not a very good object, so is not considered worth the trouble if
    adding collection loading without audio hicccup.

0.2-beta2
  * added copying some thread related DLLs to the Makefile. This is a real
    kludge, as there is no way to locate these files.
  * fixed som ereported bugs
  * replaced teeth~ abstraction by a real object
  * added support for cyclist, and improved its API somewhat. It is intended to 
    convert compressed Max 4.x patches to uncompressed versions.
  * fixed [bufsize) thop in Scope~

0.2-beta1
  * added [resize( and [grbg r g b( messages to Scope~
  * added [clear( to delay~
  * made sure signal objects are [dsp( proof

0.1-alpha57
  * fixed "bits <int>" message for bitand~, bitor~ and bitxor~,
  * fixed crash on "set <min>" message ,
  * added "pause", "resume" and "stop" messages and behaviour,
  * fixed poltocar~ phase polarity
  * fixed rand~ argument,
  * changed in arsic/vefl.c the call of garray_getfloatarray to 
    garray_getfloatwords and the calling code in buffir~, index~, lookup~, 
    peek~, play~, poke~, record~ and wave~ perform methods,
  * fixed the file handling in funbuff,
  * fixed the seed argument in decide, and made normal behaviour more random.

alpha56

alpha55
  * new class: overdrive~
  * seq:
    . new incompatible message 'tempo': 1-based coef, does not start playback
    . fix for double-to-float-pair calc in 'scoretime' and 'goto'
  * abs~: performance fix
  * slide~, rampsmooth~: bashing denormals

alpha54
  * comment: fixing namespace bug, reducing traffic
  * testmess: optionally filling message with symbols (numbers in hex form
    or names of all registered classes)

alpha53
  * matrix~: incompatible message 'set'
  * coll:
    . fixed descending order of 'sort' (a leaking sentinel bug)
    . ignoring negative indices in 'min' and 'max'
    . editor fixes (close by wm, dirty flag, title)
  * Table: reading from file, reading from editor, editor fixes
  * seq: editor fixes, editor bound to click (should bind to "open" too...)
  * prob, capture, capture~: viewer fixes

alpha52
  * compatibility mode interface in maxmode object:
    messages 'set', 'get' (reply through the second outlet)
  * better handling of initial directory in open panels
  * relative path handling in 'cd' (library objects, seq, more to come)
  * remote reply to 'pwd' message of library objects (target argument required)
  * instead, left outlet of library objects sends return code from import
    (negative value indicates an error)
  * new class: matrix~
  * linedrive: more compatible in maxmode, bipolar otherwise
  * seq:
    . paused state fixes (state preserved in 'goto', proper delay in 'start')
    . 'goto' fix (works in idlemode)
    . more incompatible messages: 'scoretime', 'cd', 'pwd'

alpha51
  * dummies loaded by maxmode, not cyclone
  * setting directory in creation argument replaced with 'cd' message
    to library objects (cyclone, maxmode, hammer and sickle)
  * 'pwd' message to library objects sends directory symbol to an outlet
  * creating cyclone and maxmode library objects possible without
    loading component libraries
  * prepend and Append:
    . bang handling, controlled by maxmode
    . restored max-like 'set' handling as default for objects with arguments
  * fix for parsing creation arguments in svf~
  * incompatible additions to seq: 'pause', 'continue', 'goto'

alpha50
  * max-compatibility mode switch for cyclone
    . turned on by loading cyclone libs through "-lib maxmode"
    . affects max-compatibility of prepend and Append, controls
      compatibility warnings
