Here's the NEWS:

Changes in Version 0.1.6

	* total separation of UI from main Quasimodo engine; Quasimodo
	  now comes with 2 user interfaces, one using GTK and one
	  that is just a useless command line prompt (mostly just a 
	  proof of concept right now).

	* Quasimodules now organized into categories; accessed via a 
	  tabbed folder (aka "notebook"). Categories are arbitrary -
	  you can invent your own.

	* C++ inheritance used for opcode arguments; lots of potential here.
	
	* all Csound generators ported (not all work)

	* small_knob panel element introduce (check the LFO module)
	
	* adsyn opcode ported

	* operators +=, -=, *=, /= and %= created

	* rolling tape support (record to disk while you play to the DSP)
	
	* support for people without MIDI devices: you can use a FIFO
	  (see the man page for mkfifo) as a MIDI device (tested with
	  the GTK-based Clavier application, which offers up a graphical
	  MIDI keyboard, and with my own software sequencer Softwerk,
	  though the latter does some bad things to the pipe).

	* Now use Karl Nelson's new libsigc++ for all non-Gtk--
  	  signals.

	* new reference counted pointer class; function tables and
	  soundfiles disappear automagically when no longer needed.
	  On the other hand, right now, they never disappear :(

	* enough bug fixes to put a horse in space.
