J.E.B.
It rather opened a door :)
We now have instance data separated from the main config file and carrying the
name 'yoshimi-{n}.instance
There are two new 'switches':
enable GUI
enable CLI
These now don't have to be set only from a command line. They are sanity
checked - you can't disable both! You are also warned that disabling the GUI
can only be reversed from the command line.
The list of hidden 'base parameters' that are set only by the main instance is
now:
sample rate
buffer size
oscillator size
Gzip copmpression
enable GUI
enable splash
enable CLI
In the other instances these are now hidden instead of deactivated. I think it
makes more sense as they are *never* enabled. All of this makes things just
that more consistent and yoshimi's config directory a bit tidier.
The first time you run the current master, you'll find all the above have been
set to the defaults, as their file locations have changed.
For the coming release I want to go through all this lot with a fine tooth comb
and - for once - shake out any bugs *before* the release!
The biggie I want to sort out (much later) is to make banks a common file. I've
never been happy with them being per instance. In the first place it's easily
possible to make them quite inconsistent, and secondly it wastes memory.
Finally it also greatly slows down starting later instances.
However, this will need a lot of thought as I not only want a single banks file
(and internal map) but also want to allow people to edit roots/banks/instruments
from any instance with all open windows kept in sync.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
