[LAA] Qtractor 0.8.2 - A Stickier Tauon release

And now for something ultimately pretty much expected: the Qstuff* pre-LAC2017 [7][8] release frenzy wrap up! Qtractor 0.8.2 (a stickier tauon) is released! Change-log: - Track-name uniqueness is now being enforced, by adding an auto-incremental number suffix whenever necessary. - Attempt to raise an internal transient file-name registry to prevent automation/curve files to proliferate across several session load/save (re)cycles. - Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback. - A brand new user preference global option is now available: View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI) if more than one is available. - More gradient eye-candy on main track-view and piano-roll canvases, now showing left and right edge fake-shadows. - Fixed the time entry spin-boxes when changing time offset or length fields in BBT time format that goes across any tempo/time-signature change nodes. - French (fr) translation update (by Olivier Humbert, thanks). Description: Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
