+
+    * src/create_symbols_file.sh
+    Christian Weisgerber pointed out that the shell script did not run on a
+    real Bourne shell although it did run under Bash in Bourne shell mode.
+
+    * src/create_symbols_file.py
+    Rewrite of above in Python. Also add support for writing Win32 .def files.
+    The Python script generates Symbols.linux, Symbols.darwin and
+    libsndfile.def (Win32 version). These files get shipped with the tarball
+    so there should not be necessary to run the Python script when building
+    the code from the tarball.
+
+    * configure.ac src/Makefile.am Win32/Makefile.am
+    Hook new Python script into the build system.

+2004-02-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c

+    support is enabled on Linux (and Solaris).
+
+    * tests/misc_test.c
+    Disable update_header test on Win32. This should work but doesn't and
+    I'm not sure why.
+
+    * Make.bat Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Updates.
+
+2004-01-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Changed logindex, headindex and headend files of SF_PRIVATE from unsigned

+
+    * src/common.c src/aiff.c src/wav.c src/w64.c
+    Fixed compiler warnings resulting from above change.
+
+2004-01-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Fixed a bug in header reader for some files with data after the sample data.
+
+2003-12-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c tests/Makefile.am
+    Add tests for AIFF/IMA files.

+
+2003-12-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/FAQ.html
+    Minor mods to pkg-config section.
+
+2003-12-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/create_symbols_file.sh
+    Andre Pang (also known as Ozone) pointed out that on MacOSX, all non
+    static symbols are exported causing troubles when trying to link
+    libsndfile with another library which has any of the same symbols.
+    He fixed this by supplying the MacOSX linker with a file containing
+    all the public symbols so that only they would be exported and then
+    supplied a patch for libsndfile.
+    This wasn't quite ideal, because I would have to maintain two (3 if
+    you include Win32) separate files containing the exported symbols.
+    A better solution was to create this script which can generate a
+    Symbols file for Linux, MacoSX and any other OS that supports
+    minimising the number of exported symbols.
+
+    * configure.ac src/Makefile.am
+    Hook the new script into the build process.
+
+2003-12-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+
+2003-12-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Axel Röbel pointed out that on Mac OSX a pipe is not considered a fifo
+    (S_ISFIFO (st.st_mode) is false) but a socket (S_ISSOCK (st.st_mode) is
+    true). The test has therefore been changed to is S_ISREG and anything
+    which which does not return true for S_ISREG is considered a pipe.
+
+2003-11-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/misc_test.c

+
+2003-10-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Ross Bencina has contributed code to replace all of the (mostly broken)
+    Win32 POSIX emulation calls with calls the native Win32 file I/O API.
+    This code still needs testing but is likely to be a huge improvemnt
+    of support for Win32. Thanks Ross.
+
+2003-10-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/dwvw.c
+    Removed filedes field from the DWVW_PRIVATE struct.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Change psf_fopen() so it returns psf->error instead of the file descriptor.

+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Change these to work with changed psf_fopen() return value.
+    Remove all uses of psf->filedes from sndfile, making it easier to slot native
+    Win32 API file handling functions.
+
+    * src/test_file_io.c
+    Minor changes to make it compile with new file_io.c stuff.
+
+2003-10-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/gsm610.h
+    Rename a variable from true to true_flag. As Ross Bencina points out,
+    true is defined in the C99 header <stdbool.h>.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    If fstat() fails, return SF_TRUE instead of -1 (Ross Bencina).
+
+2003-10-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Increase the size of SF_BUFFER_LEN and SF_HEADER_LEN.
+

+
+    * src/common.c
+    Removed direct calls to psf_fread()/psf_fseek()/psf_fgets() etc from
+    psf_binheader_readf and redirect them to new buffered versions
+    header_read(), header_seek() and header_gets().
+    Add "G" format specifier to emulate fgets() functionality with buffering.
+    This will allow reading some file types from pipes.

+
+2003-05-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed a potential bug where psf->sf.seekable was being set to FALSE when
+    operating on stdin or stdout but then the default initialiser was reseting
+    it to TRUE. Thanks to Axel Röbel.
+

+    Fixed a bug in the header parser where it was not handling an odd length
+    COMM chunk correctly. Thanks to Axel Röbel.
+
+    * src/test_file_io.c
+    Add more tests.
+
+    * tests/win32_test.c

+    Hook the new test program into the build system.
+
+2003-05-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/test_file_io.c
+    New test program to test operation of functions defined in file_io.c. This

+
+    * src/Makefile.am
+    Hook new test program into the build system.
+

+
+    * tests/benchmark.tpl

+
+2003-05-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    More stuffing about working around PLAIN OLD-FASHIONED **BUGS** in Win32.
+

+
+    * src/au.c

+
+2003-04-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Fixed Win32 version of psf_fseek() which was calling psf_get_filelen()
+    which was in turn calling psf_fseek() which in the end blew the stack.
+    Now of course this would have been easy to find on Linux, but this blow
+    up was happening in kernel32.dll and the fscking MSVC++ debugger couldn't
+    figure out what call caused this (it couldn't even tell me the stack had
+    overflowed) and was absolutley useless for this debugging exercise.
+    On top of that, the reason I got into this mess was that windoze doesn't
+    have a working fstat() function which can return file lengths > 2 Gig. It
+    HAS a fscking _fstati64() but the file length value is only updated AFTER
+    the bloody file is closed. That makes it completely useless.
+    How the hell do people stand working on this crap excuse of an OS?
+
+2003-04-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * Win32/unistd.h src/file_io.c

+
+    * Win32/sndfile.h
+    Updated to match src/sndfile.h.in.

+    * Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Added dither.c and htk.c to libsndfile.dll target.
+
+2003-04-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    First attempt at getting the Win32 versions of the these functions working.
+    They still need to be tested.
+
+2003-04-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/strings.c
+    Found and fixed a bug which was causing psf_store_string() to fail on
+    Motorola 68k processors. Many thanks fo Joshua Haberman (Debian maintainer
+    of libsndfile) for compiling and running debug code to help me debug the
+    problem.
+
+2003-04-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/file_io.c src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Much hacking to get reading and writing of embedded files working (ie sound
+    files at a non-zero files offset).
+
+    * doc/embedded_files.html
+    First pass atempt at documenting reading/writing embedded files.

+
+2003-04-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Fix retrieving and storing of string data from files. Need to be careful
+    about using psf->buffer for strings.
+
+2003-04-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Fix psf_fseek() for seeks withing embedded files.
+
+2003-04-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Changed the definition of SNDFILE slightly to produce warnings when it isn't
+    used correctly. This should have zero affect in code which uses the SNDFILE
+    type correctly.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed a few compiler warnings cause by the changes to the SNDFILE type.
+
+2003-04-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+    New test program to test sf_open_fd() on files containing data other than
+    a single sound file.

+2003-04-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    When creating files, set the readable by others flag. This still allows
+    further restrictions to be enforced by use of the user's umask. Fix
+    suggested by Eric Lyon.
+
+2003-04-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in src/sndfile.c
+    Changed sf_open_fd(). Dropped offset parameter and added a close_desc
+    parameter. If close desc is TRUE, the file descritpor passed into the
+    library will be closed when sf_close() is called.
+
+    * tests/utils.tpl
+    Modified call to sf_open_fd() to set close_desc parameter to SF_TRUE.
+
+2003-04-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl
+    Add a string (using sf_set_string() function) before and after data section
+    of all files. This will make sure that if string data can be added, it
+    doesn't overwrite real audio data.
+
+2003-04-02  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Started work on supporting a non-zero offset parameter for sf_open_fd ().
+
+    * src/<file header parsers>.c
+    Removed many uses of psf_fseek (SEEK_END) which to allow for future use of
+    sf_open_fd() with non-zero offset.
+    Associated refactoring.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Implemented functionality required to get sf_get_string() and
+    sf_set_string() working for AIFF files.
+
+2003-04-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/utils.tpl
+    Modified test_open_file_or_die() to alternately use sf_open() and
+    sf_open_fd().
+
+    * src/svx.c
+    Fixed a bug which occurred when openning an existing file for read/write
+    using sf_open_fd(). In this case, the existing NAME chunk needs to be
+    read into psf->filename.
+    Fixed printing of sf_count_t types to logbuffer.
+
+2003-03-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Added prototype for new function sf_open_fd().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Moved most of the code in sf_open() to a new function psf_open_file().
+    Created new function sf_open_fd() which also uses psf_open_file() but
+    does not currently support the offset parameter.
+
+    * doc/api.html
+    Document sf_open_fd().
+
+2003-03-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed a memory leak reported by Evgeny Karpov. Memory leak only occurred
+    when an attempt was made to read and the open() call fails.
+
+2003-03-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/open_fail_test.c
+    New test program to check for memory leaks when sf_open fails on a valid
+    file. Currently this must be run manually under valgrid.
+
+    * tests/Makefile.am
+    Hook new test program into build.
+
+2003-03-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * Octave/sndfile_save.m Octave/sndfile_play.m
+    Added a -mat-binary option to the octave save command to force the output
+    to binary mode even if the user has set ascii data as the default. Found
+    by Christopher Moore.
+
+2003-02-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/dither.html
+    New file which will document the interface which allows the addition of
+    audio dither when sample word sizes are being reduced.
+
+    * src/dither.c
+    More work.
+
+2003-02-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+
+2003-02-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/htk.c
+    New file for reading/writing HMM Tool Kit files.

+
+2003-02-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Fixed a bug where the LIST chunk length was being written incorrectly.
+
+    * tests/string_test.c
+    Added call to check_log_buffer().
+    Minor cleanups.
+
+2003-02-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_w64.h
+    Applied patch from Antoine Mathys to add extra WAV format definitions and
+    a G72x_ADPCM_WAV_FMT struct definition.
+
+    * src/wav_w64.c
+    Applied patch from Antoine Mathys which converts wav_w64_format_str() from
+    one huge inefficient switch statement to a binary search.
+
+    * tests/string_test.c
+    Dump log buffer if tests fail.
+
+2003-02-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Add enums and typedefs for dither.
+    Deprecate SFC_SET_ADD_DITHER_ON_WRITE and SFC_SET_ADD_DITHER_ON_READ, to be
+    replaced with SFC_SET_DITHER_ON_WRITE and SFC_SET_DITHER_ON_READ which will
+    allow different dither algorithms to be enabled.
+    Added SFC_GET_DITHER_INFO_COUNT and SFC_GET_DITHER_INFO.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in src/Version_script.in Win32/libsndfile.def.
+    Added public sf_dither_*() functions.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Implement commands above.
+
+    * src/dither.c
+    More work. Framework and external hooks into dither algorithms complete.

+    Add src/strings.c and src/xi.c to the build.
+    Add string_test to build and to tests on WAV files.
+
+    * doc/index.html
+    Added XI to support matrix.
+
+2003-01-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Added prototypes for sf_get_string() and sf_set_string() and SF_STR_*
+    enum values.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added public interface to sf_get_string() and sf_set_string().
+
+    * src/wav.c

+
+    * src/strings.c
+    New file for storing and retrieving strings to/from files.
+
+    * src/Makefile.am
+    Added strings.c to build.
+
+2003-01-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/xi.c
+    Read seems to be working so looking at write.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Added SF_FORMAT_XI, SF_FORMAT_DPCM_8 and SF_FORMAT_DPCM_16 enum values.
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c tests/lossy_comp_test.c tests/Makefile.am
+    Added test for 8 and 16 bit XI format files.
+
+2003-01-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/index.html
+    Added a non-lawyer readable summary of the licensing provisions as
+    suggested by Steve Dekorte.
+
+2003-01-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c

+    Added comments on the correct way to set up the MSVCDir environment
+    variable.
+
+    * doc/win32.html
+    Add on how to set up the MSVCDir environment variable.
+
+2003-01-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c examples/sndfile-info.c
+    When run on Win32 without any command line parameters print a message and
+    then sleep for 5 seconds. This means the when somebody double clicks on
+    these programs in explorer the user will actually see the message.
+
+2003-01-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/misc_test.c
+    Bypass permission test if running as root because root is allowed to open
+    a readonly file for write.
+
+2003-01-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * Win32/Makefile.msvc

+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Updated for PVF files.
+
+2003-01-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Modified validate_sfinfo() to force samplerate, channels and sections
+    to be >= 1.

+
+    * src/xi.c
+    More work.
+
+2003-01-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/Makefile.am

+2003-01-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pvf.c src/common.h src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed error handling for PVF files.
+
+    * src/xi.c
+    New file for handling Fasttracker 2 Extended Instrument files. Not working
+    yet and included when configured with --enable-experimental.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/common.h
+    Hooked in new file xi.c.
+
+2002-12-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/rx2.c
+    Added a patch from Marek Peteraj which sheds a little more light on the
+    slices within an RX2 file. Still need to find out data encoding.
+
+2002-12-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Started work on decoding 'acid' and 'strc' chunks.
+
+2002-12-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/peak_check_test.c
+    Minor cleanup.
+
+2002-12-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl
+    Added check to make sure no error was generated when an attempt was made to
+    read past the end of the file.
+
+2002-12-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/lists.html
+    Added "mailto" links for all three lists.
+
+    * src/pvf.c
+    New file for Portable Voice Format files.

+    * doc/index.html
+    Add PVF to the compatibility matrix.
+
+    * src/pcm.c src/alaw.c src/ulaw.c src/float32.c src/double64.c
+    Previously, attempts to read beyond the end of a file would set psf->error
+    to SFE_SHORT_ERROR. This behaviour diverged from the behaviour of the POSIX
+    read() call but has now been fixed.
+    Attempts to read beyond the end of the file will return a short read count
+    but will not longer set any error.
+
+2002-12-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Add more sanity checking when opening a RAW file for read. When format is
+    not RAW, zero out all members of the SF_INFO struct.
+
+    * tests/raw_test.c
+    Add bad_raw_test() to check for above problem.
+
+    * tests/stdin_test.c examples/sndfile-info.c
+    Set the format field of the SF_INFO struct to zero before calling
+    sf_open().
+
+    * doc/api.html
+    Add information about the need to set the format field of the SF_INFO struct
+    to zero when opening non-RAW files for read.
+
+    * configure.ac
+    Removed use of conversion script on Solaris. Not all Solaris versions
+    support it.
+
+    * doc/lists.html
+    New file containg details of the mailing lists.
+
+    * doc/index.html
+    Add a link to the above new file.
+
+2002-12-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/dft_cmp.c
+    Fixed a SIGFPE on Alpha caused by a log10 (0.0). Thanks to Joshua Haberman
+    for providing the gdb traceback.
+
+2002-11-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Added more capabilities to 'smpl' chunk parser.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed some (not all) possible problems found with Flawfinder.
+
+2002-11-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed a bug in sf_seek(). This bug could only occur when an attempt was
+    made to read beyond the end and then sf_seek() was called with a whence
+    parameter of SEEK_CUR.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Win32's _fstati64() does not work, it returns BS. Re-implemented
+    psf_get_filelen() in terms of psf_fseek().
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl
+    Add a test to detect above bug.
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    Modification to prevent compiler warnings on Mac OS X.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Fixes for windows (what a f**ked OS).
+
+2002-11-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.ac
+    Disable use of native lrint()/lrintf() on Mac OSX. These functions exist on
+    Mac OSX 10.2 but not on 10.1. Forcing the use of the versions in
+    src/float_cast.h means that a library compiled on 10.2 will still work on
+    10.1.
+
+2002-11-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in configure.ac
+    Renamed configure.in to configure.ac as expected by later versions of
+    autoconf.
+    Slight hacking of configure.ac to work with version 2.54 of autoconf.
+    Changed to using -dumpversion instead of --version for determining GCC
+    version numer as suggested by Anand Kumria.
+
+    * src/G72x/Makefile.am
+    Slight hacking required for operation with automake 1.6.3.
+
+2002-11-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    In psf_binheader_readf() changed type parameter type "b" type from size_t
+    to int to prevent errors on IA64 CPU where sizeof (size_t) != sizeof (int).
+    Thanks to Enrique Robledo Arnuncio for debugging this.
+
+2002-11-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * test/command_test.tpl
+    Changed test value so test would pass on Solaris.
+
+    * src/Version_script.in
+    Modified version numbering so that later versions of 1.0.X can replace
+    earlier versions without recompilation.
+
+    * src/vox_adpcm.c
+    Fixed bug causing short reads.
+
+2002-11-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * test/floating_point_test.c
+    Code cleanup using functions from util.c.
+    Add test for IEEE replacement floats and doubles.
+
+2002-11-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Fixed a possible divide by zero error when read the 'smpl' chunk. Thanks to
+    Serg Repalov for the example file.
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.tpl
+    Used sf_command (SFC_TEST_IEEE_FLOAT_REPLACE) to test IEEE replacement code.
+    Clean up pcm_double_test().
+
+    * src/float32.c src/double64.c
+    Force use of IEEE replacement code using psf->ieee_replace is TRUE,
+    Print message to log_buffer as well.
+    Rename all broken_read_* and broken_write* functions to replace_read_* and
+    replace_write_*.
+
+    * tests/util.tpl
+    Added string_in_log_buffer().
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.tpl
+    Use string_in_log_buffer() to ensure that IEEE replacement code has been
+    used.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Removed --enable-force-broken-float option. IEEE replacement code is now
+    always tested.
+
+2002-10-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/double64.c
+    Implement code for read/writing IEEE doubles on platforms where the native
+    double format is not IEEE.
+
+    * src/float32.c src/common.h
+    Remove float32_read() and float32_write(). Replace with float32_le_read(),
+    float32_be_read(), float32_le_write() and float32_be_write() to match stuff
+    in src/double64.c.
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Fix all usage of float32_write().
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    Added SFC_TEST_IEEE_FLOAT_REPLACE command (testing only).
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Added SF_PRIVATE field ieee_replace.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    In sf_command() set/reset psf->ieee_replace.
+
+2002-10-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.tpl
+    Fixed a problem when testing with --enable-force-broken-float. The test was
+    generating a value of negative zero and the broken float code is not able
+    to write negative zero. Removing the negative zero fixed the test.
+
+2002-10-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Added fix for Cygwin (suggested by Maros Michalik).
+
+2002-10-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Improved error detection and handling.
+
+    * src/file_io.c src/common.h
+    Removed functions psf_ferror() and psf_clearerr() which were redundant
+    after above improvements.
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/svx.c src/w64.c src/wav.c
+    Removed all use of psf_ferror() and psf_clearerr().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Removed #include of <stdio.h>, <unistd.h>, <fcntl.h> and <math.h> which
+    are no longer needed.
+
+    * tests/misc_test.c
+    Added test to make sure the correct error message is returned with an
+    existing read-only file is openned for write.
+
+2002-10-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/index.html doc/api.html
+    Updated for OKI Dialogic ADPCM files.
+
+    * src/command.c
+    Added VOX ADPCM to sub_fomats.
+
+2002-10-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/vox_adpcm.c src/Makefile.am
+    New file for handling OKI Dialogic ADPCM files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Add new subtype SF_FORMAT_VOX_ADPCM.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Renamed function is_au_snd_file () to format_from_extenstion () and expanded
+    its functionality to detect headerless VOX files.
+
+    * src/raw.c
+    Added hooks for SF_FORMAT_VOX_ADPCM.
+
+    * examples/sndfile-info.c
+    Print out file duration (suggested by Conrad Parker).
+
+    * libsndfile.spec.in
+    Force installation of sndfile.pc file (found by John Thompson).
+
+    * tests/Makefile.am tests/lossy_comp_test.c tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Add tests for SF_FORMAT_VOX_ADPCM.
+
+2002-10-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/misc_test.c
+    Add test which attempts to write to /dev/full (on Linux anyway) to check
+    for correct handling of writing to a full filesystem.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Return correct error message if the header cannot be written because the
+    filesystem is full.
+
+    * tests/util.tpl
+    Corrected printing of file mode in error reporting.
+
+    * src/mat5.c
+    Fixed a bug where a MAT5 file written by libsndfile could not be opened by
+    Octave 2.1.36.
+
+2002-10-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h src/file_io.c
+    All low level file I/O have been modified to be better able to report

+
+    * doc/command.html
+    Fixed typo found by Tommi Ilmonen.
+
+    * src/ima_adpcm.c

+
+2002-08-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Bumped version to 1.0.rc6.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Modified scaling of normalised floats and doubles to integers. Until now
+    this has been done by multiplying by 0x8000 for short output, 0x80000000
+    for 32 bit ints and so on. Unfortunately this can cause an overflow and
+    wrap around in the target value. All thes values have therefore been
+    reduced to 0x7FFF, 0x7FFFFFFF and so on. The conversion from ints to
+    normalised floats and doubles remains unchanged. This does mean that for
+    repeated conversions normalised float -> pcm16 -> normalised float would
+    result in a decrease in amplitude of 0x7FFF/0x8000 on every round trip.
+    This is undesirable but less undesireable than the wrap around I am trying
+    to avoid.
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Removed file hash checking because new float scaling procedure introduced
+    above prevented the ability to crate a has on both x86 and PowerPC systems.
+
+2002-08-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/txw.c
+    Completed reading of TXW files. Seek doesn't work yet.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Added a MacOS 9 replacement for ftruncate().
+
+    * MacOS/sndfile.h
+    Added MacOS 9 header file. This should be copied into src/ to compile
+    libsndfile for MacOS9.
+
+2002-08-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed commands SF_SET_NORM_DOUBLE and SFC_SET_NORM_FLOAT to return their
+    values after being set. Reported by Jussi Laako.
+
+    * configure.in
+    If autogen is not found, touch all .c and .h files in tests/.
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Added format width specifier to psf_log_printf() for %u, %d, %D and %X.
+
+    * src/dwd.c
+    Completed implementation of read only access to these files.
+
+    * src/common.h src/*.c src/pcm.c

+    pcm_init() to do without it.
+
+2002-08-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wve.c
+    New file implementing read of Psion Alaw files. This will be a read only
+    format. Implementation complete.
+
+    * src/dwd/c
+    Started implementation of DiamondWare Digitized files. Also read only, not
+    complete.
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Add parsing of 'smpl' chunk.
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Fixed reading on un-normalized doubles and floats from 24 bit PAF files.
+    This brings it into line with the reading of 8 bit files into
+    un-normalized doubles which returns values in the range [-128, 127].
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Modified psf_log_printf() to accept the %% conversion specifier to allow
+    printing of a single '%'.
+
+    * src/sds.c
+    Read only of 16 bit samples is working. Need to build a test harness for
+    this and other read only formats.
+
+2002-08-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added --enable-experimental configure option.
+    Removed pkg-config message at the end of the configure process.
+
+    * src/sds.c src/txw.c src/rx2.c src/sd2.c
+    Moved all the code in these files inside #if ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_CODE
+    blocks and added new *_open() function for the case where experimental is
+    not enabled. These new functions just return SFE_UNIMPLMENTED.
+
+    * Win32/sndfile.h src/sndfile.h.in src/common.h
+    Removed un-necessary #pragma pack commands.
+
+    * src/file_io.c

+    directory to the src/ directory.
+
+    * Make.bat
+    Batch file to make compiling on Wi32 a little easier. Implements "make" and
+    "make check".
+
+2002-08-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Add place holder for ftruncate() on Win32 which doesn't have ftruncate().
+    This will need to be fixed later.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h.in
+    New file (copy of sndfile.h) with sets up @TYPEOF_SF_COUNT_T@ which will be
+    replaced by the correct type during configure.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Modified to find a good type for TYPEOF_SF_COUNT_T.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Fixed a bug when reading malformed headers.

+    * doc/index.html
+    Added beginning of a capabilities list beyond simple file formats which
+    can be read/written.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Added parsing of INST and MARK chunks of AIFF files. At the moment this
+    data is simply recorded in the log buffer. Later it will be possible to
+    read this data from an application using sf_command().
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Added parsing of 'cue ' chunk which contains loop information in WAV files.
+
+    * exampes/sndfile-info.c
+    Changed reporting of Samples to Frames.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/w64.c src/aiff.c src/wav_w64.h

+    What's the best format for storing temporary files?
+
+    * src/sds.c
+    New file for reading/writing Midi Sample Dump Standard files.
+
+    * src/Makefile.am src/sndfile.c src/common.[ch]
+    Added hooks for sds.c.
+
+    * examples/sndfile-info.c

+
+    * doc/api.html
+    Added explanation of mode parameter for sf_open().
+    Added explanation of usage of SFM_* values in sf_seek().
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch] src/command.c src/file_io.c src/common.h
+    Implemented SFC_FILE_TRUNCATE to allow a file to be truncated. File
+    truncation was suggested by James McCartney.
+
+    * src/command.html
+    Documented SFC_FILE_TRUNCATE.
+
+    * tests/command_test.c
+    Add tests for SFC_FILE_TRUNCATE.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added a thrid parameter to the VALIDATE_SNDFILE_AND_ASSIGN_PSF macro to
+    make resetting the error number optional. All uses of the macro other than
+    in error reporting functions were changed to reset the error number.
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Fixed a bug were sf_read_* was logging an SFE_SHORT_READ even when no error
+    occurred.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl
+    Added tests of internal error state.
+
+2002-08-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/GSM610/private.h src/GSM610/*.c src/GSM610/Makefile.am
+    Renamed private.h to gsm610_priv.h to prevent clash with other headers
+    named private.h in other directories. (Probably only a problem on MacOS 9).
+
+    * src/G72x/private.h src/G72x/*.c src/G72x/Makefile.am
+    Renamed private.h to g72x_priv.h to prevent clash with other headers
+    named private.h in other directories. (Probably only a problem on MacOS 9).
+
+    * MacOS/config.h
+    Changed values of HAVE_LRINT and HAVE_LRINTF to force use of code in
+    float_cash.h.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Changes the name of samples field of the SF_INFO to frames. The old name
+    had caused too much confusion and it simply had to be changed. There will
+    be at least one more pre-release.

+
+2002-08-02  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/FAQ.html

+    of type sf_count_t to their maximum positive value.
+
+    * src/dwvw.c src/w64.c
+    Used SF_COUNT_MAX_POSITIVE().
+
+2002-07-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Fixed bug in reading/writing of 24 bit PCM PAF files on big endian systems.
+
+    * tests/floating_point_tests.c
+    Fixed hash values for 24 bit PCM PAF files.
+    Disabled file has check if lrintf() function is not available and added
+    warning.
+    Decreased level of signal from a peak of 1.0 to a value of 0.95 to prevent
+    problems on platforms without lrintf() ie Solaris.
+
+2002-07-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c

+    first had the 'fact' chunk before the 'fmt ' chunk, the other had an
+    incomplete 'INFO' chunk at the end of the file.
+
+    * src/w64.c
+    Added fix to allow differentiation between W64 files and ACID files.
+
+    * src/au_g72x.c src/common.h src/sndfile.c
+    Added error for G72x encoded files with more than one channel.
+

+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Get sndfile-play program working on Win32. The Win32 PCM sample I/O API
+    sucks. The sndfile-play program now works on Linux, MacOSX, Solaris and
+    Win32.
+
+2002-07-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+

+    * src/sndfile.h src/common.h
+    Moved some yet-to-be-implelmented values for SF_FORMAT_* from the public
+    header file sndfile.h to the private header file common.h to avoid
+    confusion about the actual capabilities of libsndfile.
+
+2002-07-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/wav.c
+    Fixed file parsing for WAV and AIFF files containing non-audio data after
+    the data chunk.
+

+    For SFC_SET_NORM_* tests, change the file format from SF_FORMAT_WAV to
+    SF_FORMAT_RAW.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added sf_command(SFC_TEST_ADD_TRAILING_DATA) to allow testing of reading
+    from AIFF and WAV files with non-audio data after the audio chunk.
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Add test commands SFC_TEST_WAV_ADD_INFO_CHUNK and
+    SFC_TEST_AIFF_ADD_INST_CHUNK. When these commands are working, they will be
+    moved to src/sndfile.h
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/wav.c
+    Begin implementation of XXXX_command() hook for sf_command().
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl

+    working.
+
+2002-07-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/update_header_test.c
+    Allow read sample count == write sample count - 1 to fix problems with VOC
+    files.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl tests/pcm_test.tpl
+    Fixed some problems in the test suite discovered by using Valgrind.
+
+2002-07-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/utils.[ch] tests/*.c
+    Renamed check_log_buffer() to check_log_buffer_or_die().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    SFC_UPDATE_HEADER_NOW and SFC_SETUPDATE_HEADER_AUTO almost finished. Works
+    for all file formats other than VOC.
+
+2002-07-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch] src/common.h
+    Started adding functionality to allow the file header to be updated before
+    the file is closed on files open for SFM_WRITE. This was requested by
+    Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu who is using libsndfile for file I/O in iCSound.
+
+    * tests/update_header_test.c
+    New test program to test that the above functionality is working correctly.
+
+    * tests/peak_chunk_test.c tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Cleanups.
+
+2002-07-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sfendian.[ch]
+    Changed length count parameters for all endswap_XXX() functions from
+    sf_count_t (which can be 64 bit even on 32 bit architectures) to int. These
+    functions are only called frin inside the library, are always called with
+    integer parameters and doing the actual calculation on 64 bit values is
+    slow in comparision to doing it on ints.
+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c
+    More playback hacking for Win32.
+
+2002-07-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    In psf_log_printf(), changed %D format conversion specifier to %M (marker) and
+    added %D specifier for printing the sf_count_t type.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Changed all usage of psf_log_printf() with %D format conversion specifiers
+    to use %M conversion instead.
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.tpl tests/pcm_test.def
+    New files to autogen pcm_test.c.
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Fixed bug in scaling floats and doubles to 24 bit PCM and vice versa.
+
+2002-07-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Fix setup of $ac_cv_sys_largefile_CFLAGS so that sndfile.pc gets valid
+    values for CFLAGS.
+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c
+    Start adding playback support for Win32.
+
+2002-07-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Worked to removed compiler warnings.
+    Extensive refactoring.
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Added function psf_memset() which works like the standard C function memset
+    but takes and sf_count_t as the length parameter.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Replaced calls to memset(0 with calls to psf_memset() as required.
+
+2002-07-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added "libsndfile : " to the start of all error messages. This was suggested
+    by Conrad Parker author of Sweep ( http://sweep.sourceforge.net/ ).
+
+    * src/sfendian.[ch]
+    Added endswap_XXXX_copy() functions.
+
+    * src/pcm.c src/float32.c src/double64.c
+    Use endswap_XXXX_copy() functions and removed dead code.
+    Cleanups and optimisations.
+
+2002-07-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h
+    Gave values to all the SFC_* enum values to allow better control of the
+    interface as commands are added and removed.
+    Added new command SFC_SET_ADD_PEAK_CHUNK.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Modified wav_write_header and aiff_write_header to make addition of a PEAK
+    chunk optional, even on floating point files.
+
+    * tests/benchmark.tpl
+    Added call to sf_command(SFC_SET_ADD_PEAK_CHUNK) to turn off addition of a
+    PEAK chunk for the benchmark where we are trying to miximize speed.
+
+    * src.pcm.c
+    Changed tribyte typedef to something more sensible.
+    Further conversion speed ups.
+
+2002-07-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/command.c
+    In major_formats rename "Sphere NIST" to "NIST Sphere".
+
+    * src/common.c src/sfendian.c
+    Moved all endswap_XXX_array() functions to sfendian.c. These functions will
+    be tweaked to provide maximum performance. Since maximum performance on one
+    platform does not guarantee maximum performance on another, a small set of
+    functions will be written and the optimal one chosen at compile time.
+
+    * src/common.h src/sfendian.h
+    Declarations of all endswap_XXX_array() functions moved to sfendian.h.
+
+    * src/Makefile.am
+    Add sfendian.c to build targets.
+
+2002-07-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c src/sfendian.h
+    Re-coded PCM encoders and decoders to match or better the speed of
+    libsndfile version 0.0.28.
+
+2002-06-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Add checking for WAVPACK data in standard PCM WAV file. Return error if
+    found. This WAVPACK is *WAY* broken. It uses the same PCM WAV file header
+    and then stores non-PCM data.
+
+    * tests/benchmark.tpl
+    Added more tests.
+
+2002-06-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/benchmark.tpl
+    Added conditional definition of M_PI.
+    For Win32, set WRITE_PERMS to 0777.
+
+    * Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Added target to make generate program on Win32.
+
+    * src/samplitude.c
+    Removed handler for Samplitude RAP file format. This file type seems rarer
+    than hens teeth and is completely undocumented.
+
+    * src/common.h src/sndfile.c src/Makefile.am Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Removed references to sampltiude RAP format.
+
+    * tests/benchmark.tpl
+    Benchmark program now prints the libsndfile version number when run. This
+    program was also backported to version 0 to compare results. Version
+    1.0.0rc2 is faster than version 0.0.28 on most conversions but slower on
+    some. The slow ones need to be fixed before final release.
+
+2002-06-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/benchmark.def tests/benchmark.tpl
+    New files which generate tests/benchmark.c using Autogen. Added int ->
+    SF_FORMAT_PCM_24 test.
+
+    * tests/benchmark.c
+    Now and Autogen output file.
+
+    * tests/Makefile.am
+    Updated for above changes.
+
+2002-06-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/benchmark.c
+    Basic benchmark program complete. Need to convert it to Autogen.
+
+    * Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Added benchmark.exe target.
+
+2002-06-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/generate.c
+    New program to generate a number of different output file formats from a
+    single input file. This allows testing of the created files.
+
+    * tests/benchmark.c
+    New test program to benchmark libsndfile. Nowhere near complete yet.
+
+    * examples/Makefile.am tests/Makefile.am
+    New make rules for the two new programs.

+    Removed the header file as it was no longer being used. Thanks to Anand
+    Kunria for spotting this.
+
+    * doc/index.html
+    A number of documentation bugs were fixed. Thanks to Anand Kumria.
+
+2002-06-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Test for Win32 before testing SIZEOF_OFF_T so that it works correctly

+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch]
+    Removed function sf_signal_max().
+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c
+    Changed call to sf_signal_max() to a call to sf_command().
+
+2002-06-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/format.c src/command.c
+    Renamed format.c to command.c which will now include code for sf_command()
+    calls to perform operations other than format commands.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h
+    Removed function sf_get_signal_max() which is replaced by commands passed
+    to sf_command().
+
+    * src/command.c
+    Implement commands SFC_CALC_SIGNAL_MAX.
+
+    * doc/command.html
+    Documented SFC_CALC_SIGNAL_MAX.
+
+2002-06-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sndfile-play.c
+    Mods to make sndfile-play work on Solaris. The program sndfile-play now
+    runs on Linux, MaxOSX and Solaris. Win32 to come.
+
+    * src/format.c
+    Added SF_FORMAT_DWVW_* to subtype_formats array.
+
+    * src/nist.c
+    Added support for 8 bit NIST Sphere files. Example file supplied by Anand
+    Kumria.
+
+2002-06-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+    Mods to make sndfile-play work on MacOSX using Apple's CoreAudio API.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Add new variables OS_SPECIFIC_INCLUDES and OS_SPECIFIC_LINKS which were
+    required to supply extra include paths and link parameters to get
+    sndfile-play working on MacOSX.
+
+    * examples/Makefile.am
+    Use OS_SPOECIFIC_INCLUDES and OS_SPECIFIC_LINKS to build commands for
+    sndfile-play.
+
+2002-06-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/nist.c

+
+    * tests/utils.c
+    Fixed an error in error string.
+
+2002-06-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * acinclude.m4
+    Removed exit command to allow cross-compiling.
+
+    * Win32/unistd.h src/file_io.c
+    Moved contents of first file into the second file (enclosed in #ifdef).
+    Win32/unistd.h is now an empty file but still must be there for libsndfile
+    to compile on Win32.
+
+    * src/sd2.c, src/sndfile.c:
+    Fixes for Sound Designer II files on big endian systems.
+
+2002-06-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Modified to work around problems with crappy MacOSX version of sed.
+    Added sanity check for proper values for CFLAGS.
+
+2002-06-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Code clean up in sf_open ().
+
+    * Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Michael Fink's contributed MSVC++ makefile was hacked to bits and put back
+    together in a new improved form.
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    Fixes for Win32; _lseeki64() returns an invalid argument for calls like
+    _lseeki64(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR) so need to use _telli64 (fd) instead.
+
+    * src/common.h src/sndfile.c src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Added SFE_LOG_OVERRUN error.
+    Added termination for potential infinite loop when parsing file headers.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/w64.c
+    Fixed bug casuing incorrect header generation when opening file read/write.
+
+2002-06-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/api.html
+    Improved the documentation to make it clearer that the file read method
+    and the underlying file format are completely disconnected. Suggested
+    by Josh Green.
+
+    * doc/command.html
+    Started correcting docs to take into account changes made to the
+    operations of the sf_command () function. Not complete yet.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Reverted some changes which had broken the partially working SDII header
+    parsing. Now have access to an iBook with OS X so reading and writing SDII
+    files on all platforms should be a reality in the near future. On Mac this
+    will involve reading the resource fork via the standard MacOS API. To move
+    a file from Mac to another OS, the resource and data forks will need to be
+    combined before transfer. The combined file will be read on both Mac and
+    other OSes like any other file.
+
+2002-06-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * ltmain.sh
+    Applied a patch from http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/porting/libtool.php
+    which allows libsndfile to compile on MacOSX 10.1. This patch should not
+    interfere with compiling on other OSes.
+
+    * src/GSM610/private.h
+    Changes to fix compile problems on MacOSX (see src/GSM610/ChangeLog).
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    Added MacOSX replacements for lrint() and lrintf().
+
+2002-06-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Replaced the code to print the filename to the log buffer when a file is
+    opened. This code seems to have been left out during the merge of
+    sf_open_read() and sf_open_write() to make a single  functions sf_open().
+
+2002-06-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Fixed a bug where the WAV header parser was going into an infinite loop
+    on a badly formed LIST chunk. File supplied by David Viens.
+
+2002-05-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added a message at the end of the configuration process to warn about the
+    need for the use of pkg-config when linking programs against version 1 of
+    libsndfile.
+
+    * doc/pkg-config.html
+    New documentation file containing details of how to use pkg-config to
+    retrieve settings for CFLAGS and library locations for linking files
+    against version 1 of libsndfile.
+
+2002-05-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Fixed minor bug in handling of so-called ACIDized WAV files.
+
+2002-05-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * Win32/libsndfile.def Win32/Makefile.msvc
+    Two new files contributed by Michael Fink (from the winLAME project)
+    which allows libsndfile to be built on windows in a MSDOS box by doing
+    "nmake -f Makefile.msvc". Way cool!
+
+2002-05-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    MacOSX is SSSOOOOOOO screwed up!!! I can't believe how hard it is to
+    generate a tarball which will configure and compile on that platform.
+    Joined the libtool mailing list to try and get some answers.
+
+2002-05-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Changed to autoconf version 2.50. MacOSX uses autoconf version 2.53 which
+    is incompatible with with version 2.13 which had been using until now.
+    The AC_SYS_LARGE_FILE macro distributed withe autoconf 2.50 is missing a
+    few features so AC_SYS_EXTRA_LARGE file was defined to replace it.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Changed to automake version 1.5 to try and make a tarball which will
+    work on MacOSX.
+
+2002-05-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_gsm610.c
+    Changed name to gsm610.c. Added reading/writing of headerless files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/raw.c
+    Added ability to read/write headerless (SF_FORMAT_RAW) GSM 6.10 files.
+
+2002-05-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Clean up in preparation for Autogen-ing this file.
+
+    * src/GSM610/*.[ch]
+    Code cleanup and prepartion forgetting file seek working. Details in
+    src/GSM610/ChangeLog.
+
+    * sndfile.pc.in
+    Testing complete. Is sndfile.m4 still needed?
+
+2002-05-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl tests/rdwr_test.tpl
+    Merged tests from these two programs into write_read_test.tpl and deleted
+    rdwr_test.tpl.
+
+2002-05-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/w64.c src/svx.c src/paf.c
+    Fixed bugs in read/write mode.
+
+2002-05-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/Makefile.am
+    Renamed sfplay.c to sndfile-play.c and sndfile_info.c to sndfile-info.c for
+    consistency when these programs become part of the Debian package
+    sndfile-programs.
+
+    * sndfile.pc.in
+    New file to replace sndfile-config.in. Libsndfile now uses the pkg-config
+    model for providing installation parameters to dependant programs.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Cleanup of code in sf_open().
+
+2002-05-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/utils.tpl tests/write_read_test.tpl
+    More conversion to Autogen fixes and enchancements.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Read/write mode is now working for 16, 24 and 32 bit PCM as well as 32
+    bit float and 64 bit double data. More tests still required.
+
+    * src/Makefile.am
+    Added DISTCLEANFILES target to remove config.status and config.last.
+
+    * Win32/Makefile.am MacOS/Makefile.am
+    Added DISTCLEANFILES target to remove Makefile.
+
+2002-05-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch] tests/rdwr_test.c
+    More verifying workings of read/write mode. Fixing bugs found.
+
+    * tests/utils.[ch]
+    Made these files Autogen generated files.
+
+    * tests/util.tpl tests/util.def
+    New Autogen files to generate utils.[ch]. Moved some generic test functions
+    into this file. Autogen is such a great tool!
+
+2002-05-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c src/float_cast.h Win32/config.h
+    Fixed a couple of Win32 specific bugs pointed out by Michael Fink
+    (maintainer of WinLAME) and David Viens.
+
+    * tests/check_log_buffer.[ch] tests/utils.[ch]
+    Moved check_log_buffer() to utils.[ch] and deleted old file.
+
+2002-05-02  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.[ch] src/sndfile.c
+    New function psf_default_seek() which will be the default seek function
+    for things like PCM and floating point data. This default is set for
+    both read and write in sf_open() but can be over-ridden by any codec
+    during it's initialisation.
+
+2002-05-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/au.c
+    AU files use a data size value of -1 to mean unknown. Fixed au_open_read()
+    to allow opening files like this.
+
+    * tests/rdwr_test .c
+    Added more tests.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed bugs in read/write mode found due to improvements in the test
+    program.
+
+2002-04-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/rdwr_test .c
+    New file for testing read/write mode.
+
+2002-04-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * m4/*
+    Removed all m4 macros from this directory as they get concatenated to form
+    the file aclocal.m4 anyway.
+
+    * sndfile.m4
+    Moved this from the m4 directory to the root directory asn this is part of
+    the distribution and is installed during "make install".
+
+2002-04-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/float32.c
+    Removed logging of peaks for all file formats other than AIFF and WAV.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.tpl tests/write_read_test.def
+    New files which autogen uses to generate write_read_test.c. Doing it this
+    way makes write_read_test.c far easier to maintain. Other test programs
+    will be converted to autogen in the near future.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Fixed a few bugs found when testing on Sparc (bug endian) Solaris.
+
+2002-04-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * doc/*.html
+    Fixed documention versioning.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Fixed a bug in the routines which search for Large File Support on systems
+    which have large file support by defualt.
+
+2002-04-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Found and fixed an issue which can cause a bug in other software (I was
+    porting Conrad Parker's Sweep program from version 0 of the library to
+    version 1). When opening a file for write, the libsndfile code would
+    set the sfinfo.samples field to a maximum value.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests to detect the above problem.
+
+2002-04-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Finished base implementation of read/write mode. Much more testing still
+    needed.
+
+    * m4/largefile.m4
+    Macro for detecting Large File Standard capabilities. This macro was ripped
+    out of the aclocal.m4 file of GNU tar-1.13.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added detection of large file support. Files larger than 2 Gigabytes should
+    now be supported on 64 bit platforms and many 32 bit platforms including
+    Linux (2.4 kernel, glibc-2.2), *BSD, MacOS, Win32.
+
+    * libsndfile_convert_version.py
+    A Python script which attempts to autoconvert code written to use version 0
+    to version 1.
+
+2002-04-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Finished base implementation of read/write mode. Much more testing still
+    needed.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Preliminary tests for read/write mode added. More needed.
+
+2002-04-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch]
+    Removed sf_open_read() and sf_open_write() functions,replacting them with
+    sf_open() which takes an extra mode parameter (SF_OPEN_READ, SF_OPEN_WRITE,
+    or SF_OPEN_RDWR). This new function sf_open can now be modified to allow
+    opening a file formodification (RDWR).
+
+2002-04-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Completed merging of separate xxx_open_read() and xxx_open_write()
+    functions. All tests pass.
+
+2002-04-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/au.c
+    Massive refactoring required to merge au_open_read() with au_open_write()
+    to create au_open().
+
+2002-04-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Started changes required to allow a sound file to be opened in read/write
+    mode, with separate file pointers for read and write. This involves merging
+    of encoder/decoder functions like pcm_read_init() and pcm_write_init()
+    int a new function pcm_init() as well as doing something similar for all
+    the file type specific functions ie aiff_open_read() and aiff_open_write()
+    were merged to make the function aiff_open().
+
+2002-04-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/file_io.c
+    New file containing psf_fopen(), psf_fread(), psf_fwrite(), psf_fseek() and
+    psf_ftell() functions. These function will replace use of fopen/fread/fwrite
+    etc and allow access to files larger than 2 gigabytes on a number of 32 bit
+    OSes (Linux on x86, 32 bit Solaris user space apps, Win32 and MacOS).
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Replaced all instances of fopen with psf_open, fread with psd_read, fwrite
+    with psf_write and so on.
+
+2002-03-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/dwvw.c
+    Finally fixed all known problems with 12, 16 and 24 bit DWVW encoding.
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Added tests for 12, 16 and 24 bit DWVW encoding.
+
+2002-03-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * m4/endian.m4
+    Defines a new m4 macro AC_C_FIND_ENDIAN, for determining the endian-ness of
+    the target CPU. It first checks for the definition of BYTE_ORDER in
+    <endian.h>, then in <sys/types.h> and <sys/param.h>. If none of these work
+    and the C compiler is not a cross compiler it compiles and runs a program
+    to test for endian-ness. If the compiler is a cross compiler it makes a
+    guess based on $target_cpu.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Modified to use AC_C_FIND_ENDIAN.
+
+    * src/sfendian.h
+    Simplified.
+
+2002-02-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Tests completely rewritten using the dft_cmp function. Now able to
+    calculate a quick guesstimate of the Signal to Noise Ratio of the encoder.
+
+2002-02-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/dft_cmp.[ch]
+    New files containing functions for comparing pre and post lossily
+    compressed data using a quickly hacked DFT.
+
+    * tests/utils.[ch]
+    New files containing functions for saving pre and post encoded data in a
+    file readable by the GNU Octave package.
+
+2002-02-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * m4/lrint.m4 m4/lrintf.m4
+    Fixed m4 macros to define HAVE_LRINT and HAVE_LRINTF even when the test
+    is cached.
+
+2002-02-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Fixed improper use of strncat ().
+
+2002-02-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/headerless_test.c
+    New test program to test the ability to open and read a known file type as a
+    RAW header-less file.
+
+2002-02-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/losy_comp_test.c
+    Added a test to ensure that the data read from a file is not all zeros.
+
+    * examples/sfconvert.c
+    Added "-gsm610" encoding types.
+
+2002-01-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sfconvert.c
+    Added "-dwvw12", "-dwvw16" and "-dwvw24" encoding types.
+
+    * tests/dwvw_test.c
+    New file for testing DWVW encoder/decoder.
+
+2002-01-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/dwvw.c
+    Implemented writing of DWVW. 12 bit seems to work, 16 and 24 bit still broken.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Improved reporting of encoding types.
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    Clean up.
+
+2002-01-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/dwvw.c
+    New file implementing lossless Delta Word Variable Width (DWVW) encoding.
+    Reading 12 bit DWVW is now working.
+
+    * src/aiff.c common.h sndfile.c
+    Added hooks for DWVW encoded AIFF and RAW files.
+
+2002-01-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/w64.c
+    Robustify header parsing.
+
+    * src/wav_w64.h
+    Header file wav.h was renamed to wav_w64.h to signify sharing of
+    definitions across the two file types.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/w64.c src/wav_w64.c
+    Refactoring.
+    Modified and moved functions with a high degree of similarity between
+    wav.c and w64.c to wav_w64.c.
+
+2002-01-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/w64.c
+    Completed work on getting read and write working.
+
+    * examples/sfplay.c
+    Added code to scale floating point data so it plays at a reasonable volume.
+
+    * tests/Makefile.am tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for W64 files.
+
+2002-01-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Modded all code in file header writing routines to use
+    psf_new_binheader_writef().
+    Removed psf_binheader_writef() from src/common.c.
+    Globally replaced psf_new_binheader_writef with psf_binheader_writef.
+
+2002-01-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Modded all code in file parsing routines to use psf_new_binheader_readf().
+    Removed psf_binheader_readf() from src/common.c.
+    Globally replaced psf_new_binheader_readf with psf_binheader_readf.
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Added new function psf_new_binheader_writef () which will soon replace
+    psf_binheader_writef (). The new function has basically the same function
+    as the original but has a more flexible and capable interface. It also
+    allows the writing of 64 bit integer values for files contains 64 bit file
+    offsets.
+
+2002-01-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/formats.c src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h
+    Added code allowing full enumeration of supported file formats via the
+    sf_command () interface.
+    This feature will allow applications to avoid needing recompilation when
+    support for new file formats are added to libsndfile.
+
+    * tests/command_test.c
+    Added test code for the above feature.
+
+    * examples/list_formats.c
+    New file. An example of the use of the supported file enumeration
+    interface. This program lists all the major formats and for each major
+    format the supported subformats.
+
+2002-01-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch] tests/*.c
+    Changed command parameter of sf_command () function from a test string to
+    an int. The valid values for the command parameter begin with SFC_ and are
+    listed in src/sndfile.h.
+
+2001-12-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/formats.c src/sndfile.c
+    Added an way of enumerating a set of common file formats using the
+    sf_command () interface. This interface was suggested by Dominic Mazzoni,
+    one of the main authors of Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/).
+
+2001-12-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added checking of filename parameter in sf_open_read (). Previousy, if a
+    NULL pointer was passed the library would segfault.
+
+2001-12-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c src/common.h
+    Changed the len parameter of the endswap_*_array () functions from type
+    int to type long.
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Fixed a problem which
+
+2001-12-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added conditional #include <sys/types.h> for EMX/gcc on OS/2. Thanks to
+    Paul Hartman for pointing this out.
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Added definitions for M_PI for when it isn't defined in <math.h>.
+
+2001-11-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/ircam.c
+    Re-implemented the header reader. Old version was making incorrect
+    assumptions about the endian-ness of the file from the magic number at the
+    start of the file. The new code looks at the integer which holds the
+    number of channels and determines the endian-ness from that.
+
+2001-11-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Added support for other AIFC types ('raw ', 'in32', '23ni').
+    Further work on IMA ADPCM encoding.
+
+2001-11-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/ima_adpcm.c
+    Renamed from wav_ima_adpcm.c. This file will soon handle IMA ADPCM
+    encodings for both WAV and AIFF files.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Started adding IMA ADPCM support.
+
+2001-11-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/double.c
+    New file for handling double precision floating point (SF_FORMAT_DOUBLE)
+    data.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c src/au.c src/raw.c
+    Added support for SF_FORMAT_DOUBLE data.
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Addition of endswap_long_array () for endian swapping 64 bit integers. This
+    function will work correctly on processors with 32 bit and 64 bit longs.
+    Optimised endswap_short_array () and endswap_int_array ().
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.c
+    Added and extra check. After the first file of each type is written to disk
+    a checksum is performed of the first 64 bytes and checked against a pre-
+    calculated value. This will work whatever the endian-ness of the host
+    machine.
+
+2001-11-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Added handling of u-law, A-law encoded AIFF files. Thanks to Tom Erbe for
+    supplying example files.
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Added tests for above.
+
+    * src/common.h src/*.c
+    Removed function typedefs from common.h and function pointer casting in all
+    the other files. This allows the compiler to perform proper type checking.
+    Hopefully this will prevernt problems like the sf_seek bug for OpenBSD,
+    BeOS etc.
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Added new function psf_new_binheader_readf () which will eventually replace
+    psf_binheader_readf (). The new function has basically the same function as
+    the original but has a more flexible and capable interface. It also allows
+    the reading of 64 bit integer values for files contains 64 bit file
+    offsets.
+
+2001-11-26  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    Completed implementation of VOC file handling. Can now handle 8 and 16 bit
+    PCM, u-law and A-law files with one or two channels.
+
+    * src/write_read_test.c tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Added tests for VOC files.
+
+2001-11-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    Added inline asm version of lrint/lrintf for MacOS. Solution provided by
+    Stephane Letz.
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    More work on this braindamaged format. The VOC files produced by SoX also
+    have a number of inconsistencies.
+
+2001-11-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Added support for 8 bit PCM PAF files.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for 8 bit PAF files.
+
+2001-11-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/pcm_test.c
+    New test program to test for correct scaling of integer values between
+    different sized integer containers (ie short -> int).
+    The new specs for libsndfile state that when the source and destination
+    containers are of a different size, the most significant bit of the source
+    value becomes the most significant bit of the destination container.
+
+    * src/pcm.c src/paf.c
+    Modified to pass the above test program.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Modified to work with the new scaling rules.
+
+2001-11-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/raw.c tests/write_read_test.c tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added ability to do raw reads/writes of float, u-law and A-law files.
+
+    * src/*.[ch] examples/*.[ch] tests/*.[ch]
+    Removed dependance on pcmbitwidth field of SF_INFO struct and moved to new
+    SF_FORMAT_* types and use of SF_ENDIAN_BIG/LITTLE/CPU.
+
+2001-11-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Started implmentation of major changes documented in doc/version1.html.
+
+    Removed all usage of off_t which is not part of the ISO C standard. All
+    places which were using it are now using type long which is the type of
+    the offset parameter for the fseek function.
+    This should fix problems on BeOS, MacOS and *BSD like systems which were
+    failing "make check" because sizeof (long) != sizeof (off_t).
+

+This is the boundary between version 1 of the library above and version 0 below.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+2001-11-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sfplay_beos.cpp
+    Added BeOS version of sfplay.c. This needs to be compiled using a C++
+    compiler so is therefore not built by default. Thanks to Marcus Overhagen
+    for providing this.
+
+2001-11-10  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sfplay.c
+    New example file showing how libsndfile can be used to read and play a
+    sound file.
+    At the moment on Linux is supported. Others will follow in the near future.
+
+2001-11-09  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Fixed problem with normalisation code where a value of 1.0 could map to
+    a value greater than MAX_SHORT or MAX_INT. Thanks to Roger Dannenberg for
+    pointing this out.
+
+2001-11-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Fixed scaling issue when reading/writing 8 bit files using
+    sf_read/sf_write_short ().
+    On read, values are scaled so that the most significant bit in the char
+    ends up in the most significant bit of the short. On write, values are
+    scaled so that most significant bit in the short ends up as the most
+    significant bit in the char.
+
+2001-11-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/au.c src/sndfile.c
+    Added support for 32 bit float data in big and little endian AU files.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for 32 bit float data in AU files.
+
+2001-11-06  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Finalised testing of stereo files where possible.
+
+2001-11-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_ms_adpcm.c
+    Fixed bug in writing stereo MS ADPCM WAV files. Thanks to Xu Xin for
+    pointing out this problem.
+
+2001-10-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_ms_adpcm.c
+    Modified function srate2blocksize () to handle 44k1Hz stereo files.
+
+2001-10-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/w64.c
+    Added support for Sonic Foundry 64 bit WAV format. As Linux (my main
+    development platform) does not yet support 64 bit file offsets by default,
+    current handling of this file format treats everything as 32 bit and fails
+    openning the file, if it finds anything that goes beyond 32 bit values.
+
+    * src/sndfile.[hc] src/common.h src/Makefile.am
+    Added hooks for W64 support.
+
+2001-10-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added more warnings options to CFLAGS when the gcc compiler is detected.
+
+    * src/*.[ch] tests/*.c examples/*.c
+    Started fixing the warning messages due to the new CFLASG.
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    More work on VOC file read/writing.
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Found that PAF files were not checking the normalisation flag when reading
+    or writing floats and doubles. Fixed it.
+
+    * tests/floating_point_test.c
+    Added specific test for the above problem.
+
+    * src/float_cast.h src/pcm.c
+    Added a section for Win32 to define lrint () and lrintf () in the header
+    and implement it in the pcm.c
+
+2001-10-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * sndfile-config.in m4/sndfile.m4
+    These files were donated by Conrad Parker who also provided instructions
+    on how to install them using autoconf/automake.
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    Fiddled around with this file some more. On Linux and other gcc supported
+    OSes use the C99 functions lrintf() and lrint() for casting from floating
+    point to int without incurring the huge perfromance penalty (particularly
+    on the i386 family) caused by the regular C cast from float to int.
+    These new C99 functions replace the FLOAT_TO_* and DOUBLE_TO_* macros which
+    I had been playing with.
+
+    * configure.in m4/lrint.m4 m4/lrintf.m4
+    Add detection of these functions.
+
+2001-10-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    Completed code for reading VOC files containing a single audio data
+    segment.
+    Started implementing code to handle files with multiple VOC_SOUND_DATA
+    segments but couldn't be bothered finishing it. Multiple segment files can
+    have different sample rates for different sections and other nasties like
+    silence and repeat segments.
+
+2001-10-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h src/*.c
+    Removed SF_PRIVATE struct field fdata and replaced it with extra_data.
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    Further development of the read part of this woefult file format.
+
+2001-10-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    Implemented gcc and i386 floating point to int cast macros. Standard cast
+    will be used when not on gcc for i385.
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Modified all uses of FLOAT/DOUBLE_TO_INT and FLOAT/DOUBLE_TO_SHORT casts to
+    comply with macros in float_cast.h.
+
+2001-10-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    Changed the TYPE_xxx enum names to VOC_TYPE_xxx to prevent name clashes
+    on MacOS with CodeWarrior 6.0.
+
+    * MacOS/MacOS-readme.txt
+    Updated the compile instructions. Probably still need work as I don't have
+    access to a Mac.
+
+2001-10-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c common.c
+    Changed all references to snprintf to LSF_SNPRINTF and all vsnprintf to
+    LSF_VSNPRINTF. LSF_VSNPRINTF and LSF_VSNPRINTF are defined in common.h.
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Added checking of HAVE_SNPRINTF and HAVE_VSNPRINTF and defining
+    LSF_VSNPRINTF and LSF_VSNPRINTF to appropriate values.
+
+    * src/missing.c
+    New file containing a minimal implementation of snprintf and vsnprintf
+    functions named missing_snprintf and missing_vsnprintf respectively. These
+    are only compliled into the binary if snprintf and/or vsnprintf are not
+    available.
+
+2001-09-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/ircam.c
+    New file to handle Berkeley/IRCAM/CARL files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/common.h
+    Modified for IRCAM handling.
+
+    * tests/*.c
+    Added tests for IRCAM files.
+
+2001-09-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Apparently microsoft windows (tm) doesn't like ulaw and Alaw WAV files with
+    20 byte format chunks (contrary to ms's own documentation). Fixed the WAV
+    header writing code to generate smaller ms compliant ulaw and Alaw WAV
+    files.
+
+2001-09-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/stdio_test.sh tests/stdio_test.c
+    Shell script was rewritten as a C program due to incompatibilities of the
+    sh shell on Linux and Solaris.
+
+2001-09-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/stdio_test.sh tests/stdout_test.c tests/stdin_test.c
+    New test programs to verify the correct operation of reading from stdin and
+    writing to stdout.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c wav.c au.c nist.c paf.c
+    Fixed a bugs uncovered by the new test programs above.
+
+2001-09-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c wav.c
+    Fixed a bug preventing reading a file from stdin. Found by T. Narita.
+
+2001-09-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Fixed a problem on OpenBSD 2.9 which was causing sf_seek() to fail on IMA
+    WAV files. Root cause was the declaration of the func_seek typedef not
+    matching the functions it was actually being used to point to. In OpenBSD
+    sizeof (off_t) != sizeof (int). Thanks to Heikki Korpela for allowing me
+    to log into his OpenBSD machine to debug this problem.
+
+2001-09-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Implemented sf_command ("norm float").
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Implemented handling of sf_command ("set-norm-float"). Float normalization
+    can now be turned on and off.
+
+    * tests/double_test.c
+    Renamed to floating_point_test.c. Modified to include tests for all scaled
+    reads and writes of floats and doubles.
+
+    * src/au_g72x.c
+    Fixed bug in normalization code found with improved floating_point_test
+    program.
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Added code for parsing 'INFO' and 'LIST' chunks. Will be used for extract
+    text annotations from WAV files.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Added code for parsing '(c) ' and 'ANNO' chunks. Will be used for extract
+    text annotations from WAV files.
+
+2001-09-02  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sf_info.c example/Makefile.am
+    Renamed to sndfile_info.c. The program sndfile_info will now be installed
+    when the library is installed.
+
+    * src/float_cast.h
+    New file defining floating point to short and int casts. These casts will
+    eventually replace all flot and double casts to short and int. See comments
+    at the top of the file for the reasoning.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Changed all default float and double casts to short or int with macros
+    defined in floatcast.h. At the moment these casts do nothing. They will be
+    replaced with faster float to int cast operations in the near future.
+
+2001-08-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/command_test.c
+    New file for testing sf_command () functionality.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Revisiting of error return values of some functions.
+    Started implementing sf_command () a new function will allow on-the-fly
+    modification of library behaviour, or instance, sample value scaling.
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Added hook for format specific sf_command () calls to SNDFILE struct.
+
+    * doc/api.html
+    Updated and errors corrected.
+
+    * doc/command.html
+    New documentation file explaining new sf_command () function.
+
+2001-08-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed error return values from sf_read*() and sf_write*(). There were
+    numerous instances of -1 being returned through size_t. These now all set
+    error int the SF_PRIVATE struct and return 0. Thanks to David Viens for
+    spotting this.
+
+2001-08-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Fixed use of va_arg() calls that were causing warning messages with the
+    latest version of gcc (thanks Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu).
+
+2001-07-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c src/sfendian.h
+    Moved definition of MAKE_MARKER macro to sfendian.h
+
+2001-07-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Modified sf_get_lib_version () so that version string will be visible using
+    the Unix strings command.
+
+    * examples/Makefile.am examples/sfinfo.c
+    Renamed sfinfo program and source code to sf_info. This prevents a name
+    clash with the program included with libaudiofile.
+
+2001-07-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/read_seek_test.c tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Added tests for sf_read_float () and sf_readf_float ().
+
+    * src/voc.c
+    New files for handling Creative Voice files (not complete).
+
+    * src/samplitude.c
+    New files for handling Samplitude files (not complete).
+
+2001-07-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/au.c src/paf.c src/svx.c src/wav.c
+    Converted these files to using psf_binheader_readf() function. Will soon be
+    ready to attempt to make reading writing from pipes work reliably.
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Added code for sf_read_float () and sf_readf_float () methods of accessing
+    file data.
+
+2001-07-20  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c src/wav_gsm610.c
+    Removed two printf()s which had escaped notice for some time (thanks
+    Sigbjørn Skjæret).
+
+2001-07-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_gsm610.c
+    Fixed a bug which prevented GSM 6.10 encoded WAV files generated by
+    libsndfile from being played in Windoze (thanks klay).
+
+2001-07-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Implemented psf_binheader_readf() which will do for file header reading what
+    psf_binheader_writef() did for writing headers. Will eventually allow
+    libsndfile to read and write from pipes, including named pipes.
+
+2001-07-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * MacOS/config.h Win32/config.h
+    Attempted to bring these two files uptodate with src/config.h. As I don't
+    have access to either of these systems support for them may be completely
+    broken.
+
+2001-06-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/float32.c
+    Fixed bug for big endian processors that can't read 32 bit IEEE floats. Now
+    tested on Intel x86 and UltraSparc processors.
+
+2001-06-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Modified to allow REX files (from Propellorhead's Recycle and Reason
+    programs) to be read.
+    REX files are basically an AIFF file with slightly unusual sequence of
+    chunks (AIFF files are supposed to allow any sequence) and some extra
+    application specific information.
+    Not yet able to write a REX file as the details of the application specific
+    data is unknown.
+
+2001-06-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Fixed endian bug when reading PEAK chunk on big endian machines.
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Fixed endian bug when reading PEAK chunk on big endian machines with
+    --enable-force-broken-float configure option.
+    Fix psf_binheader_writef for (FORCE_BROKEN_FLOAT ||______)
+
+2001-06-07  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in src/config.h.in
+    Removed old CAN_READ_WRITE_x86_IEEE configure variable now that float
+    capabilities are detected at run time.
+    Added FORCE_BROKEN_FLOAT to allow testing of broken float code on machines
+    where the processor can in fact handle floats correctly.
+
+    * src/float32.c
+    Rejigged code reading and writing of floats on broken processors.
+
+    * m4/
+    Removed this directory and all its files as they are no longer needed.
+
+2001-06-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/peak_chunk_test.c
+    New test to validate reading and writing of peak chunk.
+
+    * examples/sfconvert
+    Added -float32 option.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Changed all error return values to negative values (ie the negative of what
+    they were).
+
+    * src/sndfile.c tests/error_test.c
+    Modified to take account of the previous change.
+
+2001-06-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/float32.c
+    File renamed from wav_float.c and renamed function to something more
+    general.
+    Added runtime detection of floating point capabilities.
+    Added recording of peaks during write for generation of PEAK chunk.
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Added handing for PEAK chunk for floating point files. PEAK is read when the
+    file headers are read and generated when the file is closed. Logic is in
+    place for adding PEAK chunk to end of file when writing to a pipe (reading
+    and writing from/to pipe to be implemented soon).
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Modified sf_signal_max () to use PEAK values if present.
+
+2001-06-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Added pcm_read_init () and pcm_write_init () to src/pcm.c and removed all
+    other calls to functions in this file from the filetype specific files.
+
+    * src/*.c
+    Added alaw_read_init (), alaw_write_int (), ulaw_read_init () and
+    ulaw_write_init () and removed all other calls to functions in alaw.c and
+    ulaw.c from the filetype specific files.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests to validate sf_seek () on all file types.
+
+    * src/raw.c
+    Implemented raw_seek () function to fix a bug where
+    sf_seek (file, 0, SEEK_SET) on a RAW file failed.
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Fixed a bug in paf24_seek () found due to added seeks tests in
+    tests/write_read_test.c
+
+2001-06-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/read_seek_test.c
+    Fixed a couple of broken binary files.
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/wav.c
+    Added handling of PEAK chunks on file read.
+
+2001-05-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * check_libsndfile.py
+    New file for the regression testing of libsndfile.
+    check_libsndfile.py is a Python script which reads in a file containing
+    filenames of audio files. Each file is checked by running the examples/sfinfo
+    program on them and checking for error or warning messages in the libsndfile
+    log buffer.
+
+    * check_libsndfile.list
+    This is an example list of audio files for use with check_libsndfile.py
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Changed the defined value of M_PI for math header files which don't have it.
+    This fixed validation test failures on MetroWerks compilers. Thanks to Lord
+    Praetor Satanus of Acheron for bringing this to my attention.
+
+2001-05-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.[ch]
+    Removed psf_header_setf () which was no longer required after refactoring
+    and simplification of header writing.
+    Added 'z' format specifier to psf_binheader_writef () for zero filling header
+    with N bytes. Used by paf.c and nist.c
+
+    * tests/check_log_buffer.c
+    New file implementing check_log_buffer () which reads the log buffer of a
+    SNDFILE* object and searches for error and warning messages. Calls exit ()
+    if any are found.
+
+    * tests/*.c
+    Added calls to check_log_buffer () after each call to sf_open_XXX ().
+
+2001-05-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/wav_ms_adpcm.c src/wav_gsm610.c
+    Major rehack of header writing using psf_binheader_writef ().
+
+2001-05-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/wav_ima_adpcm.c
+    Major rehack of header writing using psf_binheader_writef ().
+
+2001-05-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Changed return type of get_encoding_str () to prevent compiler warnings on
+    Mac OSX.
+
+    * src/aiff.c src/au.c
+    Major rehack of header writing using psf_binheader_writef ().

+    psf_log_printf ().
+    Changed name of internal header generation functions from
+    psf_[ab]h_printf () to psf_asciiheader_printf () and
+    psf_binheader_writef ().
+    Changed name of internal header manipulation function psf_hsetf () to
+    psf_header_setf ().
+
+2001-05-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/nist.c
+    Fixed reading and writing of sample_byte_format header. "01" means little
+    endian and "10" means big endian regardless of bit width.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Detect Mac OSX and disable -Wall and -pedantic gcc options. Mac OSX is
+    way screwed up and spews out buckets of warning messages from the system
+    headers.
+    Added --disable-gcc-opt configure option (sets gcc optimisation to -O0 ) for
+    easier debugging.
+    Made decision to harmonise source code version number and .so library
+    version number. Future releases will stick to this rule.
+
+    * doc/new_file_type.HOWTO
+    New file to document the addition of new file types to libsndfile.

+    Some vital information gleaned from the source code to Bill Schottstaedt's
+    sndlib library : ftp://ccrma-ftp.stanford.edu/pub/Lisp/sndlib.tar.gz
+    Currently reading and writing 16, 24 and 32 bit, big-endian and little
+    endian, stereo and mono files.
+
+    * src/common.h src/common.c
+    Added psf_ah_printf () function to help construction of ASCII headers (ie NIST).
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added test for vsnprintf () required by psf_ah_printf ().
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for supported NIST files.
+
+2001-05-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>

+    and a working patch.
+    The patch was not used as is but gave a good guide as to what to do.
+
+2001-05-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Fixed comments about endian-ness of WAV and AIFF files. Guillaume Lessard
+    pointed out the error.

+    Re-write of this example using sample rate and required frequency in Hz.
+
+2001-02-11  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed bug that prevented known file types from being read as RAW PCM data.
+
+2000-12-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+

+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Corrrection to options for G723 tests.
+
+    * configure.in
+    Added --disable-gcc-pipe option for DJGPP compiler (gcc on MS-DOS) which
+    doesn't allow gcc -pipe option.
+
+2000-09-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/ulaw.c src/alaw.c src/wav_imaadpcm.c src/msadpcm.c src/wav_gsm610.c

+2000-08-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * COPYING
+    Changed to the LGPL COPYING file (spotted by H. S. Teoh).
+
+2000-08-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Removed prototype of unimplemented function sf_get_info(). Added prototype

+
+2000-08-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.[ch]
+    Removed double leading underscores from the start of all variable and

+    for use by the compiler.
+
+    * src/au_g72x.c src/G72x/*
+    Continued work on G721 encoded AU files.
+
+2000-07-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/G72x/*
+    New files for reading/writing G721 and G723 ADPCM audio. These files
+    are from a Sun Microsystems reference implementation released under a
+    free software licence.
+    Extensive changes to this code to make it fit in with libsndfile.
+    See the ChangeLog in this directory for details.
+
+    * src/au_g72x.c
+    New file for G721 encoded AU files.
+
+2000-07-08  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * libsndfile.spec.in
+    Added a spec file for making RPMs. Thanks to Josh Green for supplying this.
+
+2000-06-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h
+    Add checking for and handling of header-less u-law encoded AU/SND files.
+    Any file with a ".au" or ".snd" file extension and without the normal
+    AU file header is treated as an 8kHz, u-law encoded file.
+
+    * src/au.h
+    New function for opening a headerless u-law encoded file for read.
+
+2000-06-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Add checking for files shorter than minimal PAF file header length.
+
+2000-06-02  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c

+    with some files.
+
+2000-03-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Added option to test PCM WAV files (sanity check).
+    Fixed bug in sf_seek() tests.
+
+2000-02-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/wav.c
+    Minor changes to allow writing of GSM 6.10 WAV files.
+
+2000-02-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in Makefile.am src/Makefile.am
+    Finally got around to figuring out how to build a single library from
+    multiple source directories.
+    Reading GSM 6.10 files now seems to work.
+
+2000-01-03  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Added more error reporting in read_fmt_chunk().
+
+1999-12-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sfinfo.c
+    Modified program to accept multiple filenames from the command line.
+
+1999-11-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_ima_adpcm.c
+    Moved code around in preparation to adding ability to read/write IMA ADPCM
+    encoded AIFF files.
+
+1999-11-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Fixed put_int() and put_short() macros used by _psf_hprintf() which were
+    causing seg. faults on Sparc Solaris.
+
+1999-11-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Added string.h to includes. Thanks to Sigbjxrn Skjfret.
+
+    * src/svx.c
+    Fixed __svx_close() function to ensure FORM and BODY chunks are correctly
+    set.
+
+1999-10-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/au.c
+    Fixed handling of incorrect size field in AU header on read. Thanks to
+    Christoph Lauer for finding this problem.
+
+1999-09-28  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Fixed a bug with incorrect SSND chunk length being written. This also lead
+    to finding an minor error in AIFF header parsing. Thanks to Dan Timis for
+    pointing this out.
+
+1999-09-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    Fixed a bug with reading and writing 24 bit stereo PAF files. This problem
+    came to light when implementing tests for the new functions which operate
+    in terms of frames rather than items.
+
+1999-09-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Modified file type detection to use first 12 bytes of file rather than
+    file name extension. Required this because NIST files use the same
+    filename extension as Microsoft WAV files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h
+    Added short, int and double read/write functions which work in frames
+    rather than items. This was originally suggested by Maurizio Umberto
+    Puxeddu.
+
+1999-09-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/svx.c
+    Finished off implementation of write using __psf_hprintf().
+
+1999-09-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Added a buffer to SF_PRIVATE for writing the header. This is required
+    to make generating headers for IFF/SVX files easier as well as making
+    it easier to do re-write the headers which will be required when
+    sf_rewrite_header() is implemented.
+
+    * src/common.c
+    Implemented __psf_hprintf() function. This is an internal function
+    which is documented briefly just above the code.
+
+1999-09-05  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed a bug in sf_write_raw() where it was returning incorrect values
+    (thanks to Richard Dobson for finding this one). Must put in a test
+    routine for sf_read_raw and sf_write_raw.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Fixed default FORMsize in __aiff_open_write ().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added copy of filename to internal data structure. IFF/SVX files
+    contain a NAME header chunk. Both sf_open_read() and sf_open_write()
+    copy the file name (less the leading path information) to the
+    filename field.
+
+    * src/svx.c
+    Started implementing writing of files.
+
+1999-08-04  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/svx.c
+    New file for reading/writing 8SVX and 16SVX files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch] src/common.h
+    Changes for SVX files.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Fixed header parsing when unknown chunk is found.
+
+1999-08-01  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/paf.c
+    New file for reading/writing Ensoniq PARIS audio file format.
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch] src/common.h
+    Changes for PAF files.
+
+    * src/sndfile.[ch]
+    Added stuff for sf_get_lib_version() function.
+
+
+1999-07-31  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h MacOS/config.h
+    Fixed minor MacOS configuration issues.
+
+1999-07-30  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * MacOS/
+    Added a new directory for the MacOS config.h file and the
+    readme file.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    Fixed calculation of datalength when reading SSND chunk. Thanks to
+    Sigbjørn Skjæret for pointing out this error.
+
+1999-07-29  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/sndfile.h src/raw.c
+    Further fixing of #includes for MacOS.
+
+1999-07-25  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Added call to ferror () in main header parsing loop of __XXX_open_read
+    functions. This should fix problems on platforms (MacOS, AmigaOS) where
+    fseek()ing or fread()ing beyond the end of the file puts the FILE*
+    stream in an error state until clearerr() is called.
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for RAW header-less PCM files.
+
+    * src/common.h
+    Moved definition of struct tribyte to pcm.c which is the only place
+    which needs it.
+
+    * src/pcm.c
+    Modified all code which assumed sizeof (struct tribyte) == 3. This code
+    did not work on MacOS. Thanks to Ben "Jacobs" for pointing this out.
+
+    * src/au.c
+    Removed <sys/stat.h> from list of #includes (not being used).
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added MacOS specific #ifdef to replace <sys/stat.h>.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Added MacOS specific #ifdef to replace <sys/stat.h>.
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Added MacOS specific typedef for off_t.
+
+    * MacOS-readme.txt
+    New file with instructions for building libsndfile under MacOS. Thanks
+    to Ben "Jacobs" for supplying these instructions.
+
+1999-07-24  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Removed sndfile.h from generated file list as there were no longer
+    any autoconf substitutions being made.
+
+    * src/raw.c
+    New file for handling raw header-less PCM files. In order to open these
+    for read, the user must specify format, pcmbitwidth and channels in the
+    SF_INFO struct when calling sf_open_read ().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Added support for raw header-less PCM files.
+
+1999-07-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * examples/sfinfo.c
+    Removed options so the sfinfo program always prints out all the information.
+
+1999-07-19  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/alaw.c
+    New file for A-law encoding (similar to u-law).
+
+    * tests/alaw_test.c
+    New test program to test the A-law encode/decode lookup tables.
+
+    * tests/lossy_comp_test.c
+    Added tests for a-law encoded WAV, AU and AULE files.
+
+1999-07-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c src/au.c
+    Removed second "#include <unistd.h>". Thanks to Ben "Jacobs" for pointing
+    this out.
+
+1999-07-18  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/ulaw_test.c
+    New test program to test the u-law encode/decode lookup tables.
+
+1999-07-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.h
+    Made corrections to comments on the return values from sf_seek ().
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Fixed boundary condition checking bug and accounting bug in sf_read_raw ().
+
+1999-07-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/au.c src/ulaw.c

+
+    * tests/adpcm_test.c
+    Initialised amp variable in gen_signal() to remove compiler warning.
+
+1999-07-12  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    In __aiff_open_read () prevented fseek()ing beyond end of file which
+    was causing trouble on MacOS with the MetroWerks compiler. Thanks to
+    Ben "Jacobs" for pointing this out.
+
+    *src/wav.c
+    Fixed as above in __wav_open_read ().

+    Added fact chunk handling on read and write for all non WAVE_FORMAT_PCM
+    WAV files.
+
+    * src/wav_ima.c
+    Changed block alignment to be dependant on sample rate. This should make
+    WAV files created with libsndfile compatible with the MS Windows media
+    players.
+
+    * tests/adpcm_test.c
+    Reimplemented adpcm_test_short and implemented adpcm_test_int and

+
+1999-06-12    Erik de Castro Lopo     <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * Win32/*
+    Added a contribution from Albert Faber to allow libsndfile to compile
+    under Win32 systems. libsndfile will now be used as part of LAME the
+    the MPEG 1 Layer 3 encoder (http://internet.roadrunner.com/~mt/mp3/).
+
+1999-06-11    Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * configure.in
+    Changed to reflect previous changes.
+
+    * src/wav_ima_adpcm.c
+    Fixed incorrect calculation of bytespersec header field (IMA ADPCM only).
+
+    Fixed bug when writing from int or double data to IMA ADPCM file. Will need
+    to write test code for this.
+
+    Fixed bug in __ima_write () whereby the length of the current block was
+    calculated incorrectly. Thanks to Jongcheon Park for pointing this out.
+
+1999-03-27  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/*.c

+    fseek/ftell and added error checking of return values from
+    fread and fwrite in critical areas of the code.
+
+    * src/au.c
+    Fixed incorrect datasize element in AU header on write.
+
+    * tests/error_test.c
+    Add new test to check all error values have an associated error
+    string. This will avoid embarrassing real world core dumps.
+
+1999-03-23  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c src/aiff.c
+    Added handling for unknown chunk markers in the file.
+
+1999-03-22  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/sndfile.c
+    Filled in missing error strings in SndfileErrors array. Missing entries
+    can cause core dumps when calling sf_error-str (). Thanks to Sam
+    <mrsam at-sign geocities.com> for finding this problem.
+
+1999-03-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav_ima_adpcm.c
+    Work on wav_ms_adpcm.c uncovered a bug in __ima_read () when reading
+    stereo files. Caused by not adjusting offset into buffer of decoded
+    samples for 2 channels. A similar bug existed in __ima_write ().
+    Need a test for stereo ADPCM files.
+
+    * src/wav_ms_adpcm.c

+    <mrsam at-sign geocities.com>.
+
+    * src/wav_ima_adpcm.c
+    Fixed bug when reading beyond end of data section due to not
+    checking pima->blockcount.
+    This uncovered __ima_seek () bug due to pima->blockcount being set
+    before calling __ima_init_block ().
+
+1999-03-17  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Started implementing MS ADPCM decoder.
+    If file is WAVE_FORMAT_ADPCM and length of data chunk is odd, this
+    encoder seems to add an extra byte. Why not just give an even data
+    length?
+
+1999-03-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/wav.c
+    Split code out of wav.c to create wav_float.c and wav_ima_adpcm.c.
+    This will make it easier to add and debug other kinds of WAV files
+    in future.
+
+1999-03-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/

+    Fixed bug where the sf_read_XXX functions were returning a
+    incorrect read count when reading past end of file.
+    Fixed bug in sf_seek () when seeking backwards from end of file.
+
+    * tests/read_seek_test.c
+    Added multiple read test to short_test(), int_test () and
+    double_test ().
+    Added extra chunk to all test WAV files to test that reading
+    stops at end of 'data' chunk.
+
+1999-02-21  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c
+    Added tests for little DEC endian AU files.

+
+    * src/au.c src/aiff.c
+    Add handling of 8 bit PCM data format.
+
+    * src/aiff.c
+    On write, set blocksize in SSND chunk to zero like everybody else.
+
+1999-02-16  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c:
+    Fixed bug in let2s_array (cptr was not being initialised).
+
+    * src/sndfile.c:
+    Fixed bug in sf_read_raw and sf_write_raw. sf_seek should
+    now work when using these functions.
+
+1999-02-15  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * tests/write_read_test.c:
+    Force test_buffer array to be double aligned. Sparc Solaris
+    requires this.
+
+1999-02-14  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/pcm.c:
+    Fixed a bug which was causing errors in the reading

+
+1999-02-13  Erik de Castro Lopo  <erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com>
+
+    * src/aiff.c:
+    Changed reading of 'COMM' chunk to avoid reading an int
+    which overlaps an int (4 byte) boundary.
