  and gradient fills.


0.9.20  2021-02-10  A Winter'21 Release.

- When under under the NSM auspices, fix SIGTERM handler

0.9.2  2018-07-24  A Summer'18 release.

- Add LV2 UI Resize extension data support.
- Process MIDI Controlllers even though the channel filter
  is on (DEF Channel is set anything but "Omni").

  place, as a baseline for any micro-tuning implementations.
