hello!

it would be great to have foobar version printed in "about window".

e.g.

CODE

foobar2000 audio player [v0.9 beta 13]
Copyright (C) 2001-2005, Peter Pawlowski
Portions copyright (C) 2005 Holger Stenger

etc.

CODE

foobar2000 audio player [v0.9.4.3]

This isn't a problem, but simply no one knows about the author and his plans. And sorry, your idea does not sound too interesting or important. Is copy+paste+type "foobar 2000 0.9.4.3" a problem?
I was rather expecting gui/converter integration of TAK lossless. With Nero AAC Peter implemented the integration very quickly.

I think the reason it hasn't been integrated is that it lacks piping support and is still very new. I think/hope it is eventually implemented because TAK is a fantastic format.

True, I wasn't thinking about that.

Maybe not important, but the most of applications have their version number printed in "about" window...
Nevermind, I can live with this little issue

I second this request. Not having version number in about dialogue is somehow unconvenient.
