orx 1.2
-----
* *** Added new platform with full support: iPhone (iPod Touch/iPad). ***
* *** Orx is now published under the zlib license, please see the LICENSE file. ***
* IMPORTANT: Added Unicode support with UTF-8. Config files now should be encoded with either plain ANSI or UTF-8: extended ASCII characters (ISO-Latin-1) won't be recognized any longer.
* IMPORTANT: Added custom bitmap font support in orx with Jørgen 'Jibs' Ibsen's Dina font as default.
* IMPORTANT: Added the orxFontGen tool to create orx-compatible bitmap fonts (.tga/.ini) from TrueType (.ttf) font files, using reference texts to define the list of characters to export.
* IMPORTANT: Joystick buttons/axes are now suffixed with the corresponding joystick's ID (JOY_X_1, JOY_1_2, ...).
* IMPORTANT: Added new plugins for embedded versions: SDL plugins for win/linux (35-40% than the SFML ones) and GLFW plugins for win/linux/osx (~2% faster than SDL ones).
* IMPORTANT: Added an OpenAL/libsndfile/stb_vorbis audio plugin as SFML audio plugin counterpart.
* IMPORTANT: SDL & GLFW now handle per-object shaders in a correct manner: shader is only applied when the object is rendered and only on it. This behavior can't be obtained with SFML plugins.
* IMPORTANT: Added an internal texture called "pixel" that holds a white pixel with full opacity. This can be used for all fade in/out effects and more.

* Added automatically generated coordinates for shader textures: Texture MyTex -> MyTex_Top, MyTex_Left, MyTex_Right & MyTex_Bottom are generated by orx in a consistant way across all platforms/plugins.
* GLFW plugins are now the default plugins for embedded mode. SFML plugins are still the only existing plugins for non-embedded mode.
* GLFW and SDL plugins also use SOIL library for handling graphic files I/O
* Fixed incorrectly names joystick axes
* Texts can use localized fonts using the locale module in the same way as string content
* Added orxBank_GetIndex() & orxBank_GetAtIndex() for array-like manipulations
* Heavy optims in the orxBANK module when allocating cells and clearing banks

* Added orxMOUSE_X and orxMOUSE_Y as valid inputs for the generic input system
* Added HSL/HSV color space support with HSL<->RGB & HSV<->RGB conversion functions
* Added ParentCamera property for cameras (useful for cascading cameras or Fixed/UI camera trick for portrait<->landscape adaptation)
* When selecting a new locale language at runtime, graphics containing localized text will now resize accordingly to the text's new size
* Added __orxFREEBASIC__ define for free basic friendly build of orx
* orxClock_RemoveTimer() can now filter using the registered context
* Added events orxCONFIG_EVENT_RELOAD_START, orxCONFIG_EVENT_RELOAD_END & orxCONFIG_EVENT_INVALID_TYPE_ACCESS
* Added some new orxConfig_* functions for advanced config manipulations
* Working directory is set to executable's one for all platforms (was done only for Mac OS X before)
* Fixed constness of all orxSTRING related code
* Cleaner texture/bitmap deletion handling
* Fixed FPS display position when aspect ratio is not 1:1
* Removed a couple of warnings from external library Box2D
* Fixed some minor issues in SFML-based sound plugin
* Config raw sections/values can now be accessed at runtime (used in EyeCreate's orx config editor Pey)
* Fixed sound attenuation ratio in SFML plugin
* Added Config::IgnorePath parameter to ignore all paths when loading resources (useful for iPhone bundles were all files easily end up in the root folder)
* Modules' Init & Exit functions are now optional (ie. stand alone application don't have to define them if not needed).
* Default minimal frequency for the home made renderer plugin is now 10Hz (was 60Hz).
* Fixed orxLOCALE_EVENT_SET_STRING not sent
* Some optims / fixes / cleaning

orx 1.1
-----
* Added orxCrypt command line tool for merging/encrypting/decrypting config files
* Added owner to spawner structure + all missing accessors for runtime handling

* Fixed config block value incorrectly saved by orxConfig_Save()
* Added the possibility to use empty config values either by using an empty line or a ;
* IMPORTANT: Due to the above change, block values must have the opening " on the same line as the key attribution: Key = "
