I'll try to reply to the last emails in one:

1- It works with compilers older than 4.7, they just changed the command
line option in 4.7 from -std=c++0x to -std=c++11. Qt5 handles this but on
Qt4 I have to do it manually.

2- I've checked in a fix for this but I don't have any files to test. I
looked at the file you linked but I couldn't see any differences from
before. Also, Philo mentioned LSynth,I don't have any files to test that
either.

3- I agree that losing comments is a big problem but that's not easy to
change so it will have to wait. I think the current version is almost ready
for release and it's already a big step in compatibility and features so I
don't want to delay until I can fix that.

  I've always been opposed to showing the text lines, I think it's not
friendly for new or young users and I want to try to support everything you
mentioned through the regular UI.

  A while ago I posted a screenshot of a timeline view but I don't think it
was good enough so I didn't check it in. This is probably the most
requested feature now so I'll work on it for the next version. Fading
previous pieces could also be an option, would this help?

  I also updated the zip file with those changes.
