This is a new release with a lot of new features in many parts of the program.

Features:

Main Program

Add Startup dialog which let you open a recent session. This way, just lanch RaySession and press Enter to load the last session.
Add optional systray icon, activated only when a session is loaded, but user can also decide to use it always or never.
Open Session dialog largely improved, user can now see clients, notes and snapshots in the session to load. We can also see session folder size and date, and if session contains scripts. It is also now possible to rename, duplicate or save as template a not loaded session, or to load in the current session a client from another session.
add long jack naming checkbox in add executable dialog.
add utility scripts to menubar:
- convert an ardour session to a Ray session (containing this ardour session)
- Convert the current session to the NSM file format
- Convert Ray-Hack clients to NSM, for Jack-Mixer and Hydrogen
Add recent sessions to menubar and to systray icon.
List applications found with the key X-NSM-Capable=true in their .desktop file
ray_control: trashed_client remove_keep_files option added.
Add :monitor: NSM capability, a client can now be aware of other clients events.

Limit patchbay port width, truncking port name in the middle, the max width can be changed in canvas options dialog
Ports in portgroups can now be larger if their name requires that
Specific decorations for pipewire Monitor clients

Applications templates are not listed each time user call Add Application dialog, because now the program looks into all .desktop files and it can be long. User can update them with Refresh Applications push button.

In the patchbay, if zoom is lower than 40%, a mouse click and drag anywhere in a box moves this box.
