FUTURE RELEASES: x Software Memory Manager. x Software Scan. x Band Map. x DCS and CTCSS controls. x Allow changing working frequency while in TX mode. x Add the possibility to suspend rig command execution without shutting down the daemon, ie. without closing connection to the rig. The statusbar contains a small indicator showing the status. x Auto-Tune: When mouse button is pressed and held down, grig will start tuning automatically. x Special functions (RIG_FUNC_XXX). x Support for external tuning knobs: Powermate, other? x Service layer watchdog. GRIG 0.7.2: - Fixed bug that caused wrong handling of RF gain, IF shift, MIC gain, and compressor controls (bug #1613622). - Give volume level control higher priority to avoid jumpy behaviour (bug #1616926). GRIG 0.7.1: - A bug that caused installation to fail has been fixed (#1523367). GRIG 0.7.0: - Added receiver and transmitter level controls. - Fixed bug that caused installation errors when using autoconf 2.59e. - Pixmaps are now installed to /usr/local/share/pixmaps/grig instead of /usr/local/share/grig/pixmaps by default (related to the above bug). GRIG 0.6.0: - Save and restore RIG state. - RF power meter scale is now functional with ranges of 5, 10, 50, 100 and 500 watts. There is currently a bug, which causes the meter needle to jump up when switching between RX/TX. - Fixed bug, which caused the frequency reading to flicker between the current value and a previously set value (bug #1388342). Same bug was found for the PTT and POWER controls, too. - Fixed bug, which gave the error message "Can not find VFO list for this rig! Bug in backend?" if the rig did not have any of the rig_set_vfo or rig_get_vfo functions (bug #1440876). - Better error messages when a command fails to execute. - Fixed bug, which blocked the debug handler to properly filter messages coming from grig (hamlib messages were filtered correctly). GRIG 0.5.0: - Requires Gtk+ 2.6 and Hamlib 1.2.5 - Added VFO and SPLIT controls. - Special rig functions: LOCK, ... - Use own debug handler for both hamlib and grig messages and format debug messages so that become easier to analyse. - New debug message window, which can be used to analyse previously saved debug messages. - Modified shutdown procedure to wait until daemon actually finishes instead of using a fixed length timeout. - Disable POWER and PTT buttons by default (can be enabled via the command line). - Optimisation of the daemon process allowing faster reaction when PTT is toggled. - The mode selector combo only shows modes, which are supported by the rig. - Fixed erroneous detection of set/get level availability (bug #1266068). - Fixed incorrect handling of empty ATT, PREAMP and tuning step lists in the Radio Info window (bug #1266071). - Fixed a bug, which caused grig to display WIDE instead of NORMAL passband when the rig has no wide passband. - Optimised S-meter dynamics. - Better detection of frequency ranges and resolutions. - Corrected various mistakes in the manual page. - Various minor improvements to the user interface. - Several minor changes to support wintendo builds. GRIG 0.4.3: - Changed usleep to g_usleep to make code more portable. GRIG 0.4.2: - Added command line option to specify a delay between the execution of each command. This has been introduced as an attempt to avoid buffer overflow in some radios caused by to fast polling. - Added command line option to disable threads and use a regular timeout based daemon process instead (problem reported on FreeBSD). - Fixed a bug which caused the frequency display to flicker. - Fixed a bug which caused the README, NEWS, AUTHORS, COPYING and ChangeLog files not to be installed. - Only poll the selected meter setting when in TX mode. GRIG 0.4.1: - Fixed a bug which caused the pixmaps to be omitted from the source package. GRIG 0.4.0: - Ported to Gtk2; requires Gtk+ 2.4 or greater. Removed Gnome and GConf dependencies. - Requires Hamlib 1.2.0 or greater. - Added continuous readback from radio. - Read signal strength, tx-power, swr and alc when available. - Removed rotator support (will be in a separate program). - Radio configuration is set via the command line and the first time wizard has been completely removed. - Added RIT control. - Removed level sliders, will be re-added in the next version. GRIG 0.3.0 (never relesed, available from CVS): - Rotator support with the possibility for AZ, EL or AZ/EL rotators. - New rig controls: PTT. - Possibility to configure the serial speed (backends can override it though?). - Active readback from rig and rotator. - Fixed bug which caused the number of radios to be reset to 1, if the user re-ran the first time druid (#750024). GRIG 0.2.2: - Fixed bug which selected the wrong debug level in the menubar (Bug #609332). - Fixed bug which caused incorrect handling of unavailable level settings (#621762). GRIG 0.2.1: - Finished configuration modules. - Added wheelmouse support. - Fixed bug which prevented correct initialization of Mode, Filter and AGC selectors. - Fixed bug which caused wrong initialization of the level sliders. - Added temporary command line option to enable frequency readback. GRIG 0.2.0: - Support for Hamlib 1.1.3 (rotator). - Preferences dialog to edit radios and rotators. - New user druid to guide first-time users through initial setup. - Radio controls have been embedded into a Gtk+ widget and can be reused by other Gtk+/Gnome applications. - Command line options to override some default settings. GRIG 0.1.0: - Initial release. - Power button. - Mode, filter and AGC selector. - Frequency display (change frequency by clicking on a digit). - Level settings for AF, RF, NR, Squelch and APF (receiver).
