Songbook-Client 0.7.7

Written by Crep

Here is the release 0.7.7 for the Songbook-Client that brings the following updates:

support songbook options between braces
support for fields "original song" and "artist website"
the cover of the song can now be removed
correct edit freeze after find/replace all (thx Lohrun!)
LaTeX logs are flushed when starting a new pdf build
opening an already opened song switches to the corresponding tab (instead of making a duplicated tab)
the completer menu for macros has been rewritten and should now work (at last!)
turning spellchecking on doesn't set the song as modified anymore
tabs can be opened/closed with mouse middle click
bug fixes for songbook templates in preferences

Note that the release 0.7.6 did not happen because of a last minute bug ;)

Hi there

A new songbook release is now available. This version 3.6.1 brings a lot of visual tweaks.

Reduced line spacing: cool, 100 pages saved! In my opinion, it improves readability by emphasizing blocks for verses. Besides, more songs fit in a single page so they are easier to read :)
Display album titles under artist name
New options 'original' and 'url' to indicate the original song and a link to the artist website. For instance, see JCFrog
Revamped bridge environment with a dotted vertical bar.
New macro \Adlib
New macro \transposition{n} that indicates a shift or apply a chord transposition if mode repeatedchords is on (for instance, see Barbara - L'aigle noir)
Remove the section title 'List of songs' that was quite useless.
Rewrite the list of guitar/ukulele diagrams at the beginning of the document with better aligned boxes and improved layout. Thanks to Kaosun for his list of ukulele chords!
