This gets FileDialog updated and working on Windows. It also
removes removes the "wx3" build configurations and makes the default
Debug and Release builds wx3-only.
Still need to get VSTs updated.
This way, building the minsrc tarball doesn't require multiple versions
of Automake to be installed. (Most things were at the 1.11 version, but
some were at the 1.14 version.)
Building minsrc should now work just fine.
As this is a reversal of change committed in 2007 with no real
explanation or history behind that change other than it was
done for Export, we should probably give exporting a bit of a
workout.
This brings the builtin, LV2, and VAMP effects inline with the
Audio Units, LADSPA, and VST effects. All effects now share
a common UI.
This gives all effects (though not implemented for all):
User and factory preset capability
Preset import/export capability
Shared or private configuration options
Builtin effects can now be migrated to RTP, depending on algorithm.
LV2 effects now support graphical interfaces if the plugin supplies one.
Nyquist prompt enhanced to provide some features of the Nyquist Workbench.
It may not look like it, but this was a LOT of work, so trust me, there
WILL be problems and everything effect related should be suspect. Keep
a sharp eye (or two) open.
The main operational difference is that for v4 effect onward, the
sound name will now be *TRACK*. This will not affect existing
effects since they use version number 3 or less.
This also provides the Nyquist effect with much more information about
the current processing:

This also now shows a new green 'play cursor' when ctrl is held down on wave track, and shift being held down is signalled by a cursor change to finger-pointer too.
I also accidentally enabled EXPERIMENTAL_MIDI_OUT. We may disable that in December for release. Leaving it in for now.
In r13510 I had neglected to build with all local libraries and some of
them needed attention.
So, I also took the opportunity to work out the locale directory and
how to keep it unmolested as well. As a result, all locales are rebuilt
as expected, but into the "build" directory.
As a bonus you may now test Audacity from the "build" directory and have
Nyquist plugins and message catalogs available (so you can test other
languages again without havint to install).
So, again:
mkdir buildme
cd buildme
../configure
make
./audacity
You may now do:
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
./audacity
And all but one directory will remain unmolested...no more object files
in "src".
And if you look carefully, you'll see that the newly built "audacity" is
copied to the top of the build tree...no more having to use "src/audacity"
to run.
You can of course still do the configure from the top and get all of the
objects strewn about the tree.
I still haven't figured out how to keep the locale directory from getting
soiled. I'm not really sure there's a way around it really.
