- uncommit my personal hack of nan_compile.mk, which came to cvs with
huge commit of verse ... this shouldn't be there, I'm sorry

removed the unpopular 'ed' functions, and added .copy() to Mathutils vector and matrix
(inverted, normalized, transposed)

making an inverted copy of an objects matrix used to be.. (2.42)

imat= Mathutils.Matrix(ob.matrixWorld)
imat.invert()


# inverted.. I added but now removed

imat= ob.matrixWorld.inverted()

# with copy (current functionality)...

imat= ob.matrixWorld.copy().invert()

- bug fix, bug reported by Campbel, thanks! Keep in mind, that integration
of verse supports only sharing of mesh geometry now, you can't share
vertex color, vertex weight, etc.

Two small fixes for armature editing:

- CTRL+Click bones in editmode gave too small envelope distances (was 0.1
instead of 0.25*bone->length)
- PoseMode: ALT+S in Envelope drawmode only scaled the Parent Bone(s).

added verse library (release r6) to extern directory

Huge commit: VERSE
- All code is in #ifdef ... #endif
- Only make build system is supported and you have to add:
export WITH_VERSE=true
to user-def.mk file
- Blender can share only mesh objects and bitmaps now

I hope, that I didn't forget at anything

Fixes for:
[ #4337 ] Cant refresh the C:
[ #4710 ] Wrong paths in file selector under user prefs
[ #4353 ] Using ^ char + click on Open/Load = Blender crash

Details:

Fixes for root paths like C: on Windows, where Blender still used '/'.

Also contains fixes for relative paths:
- no relative paths for the default dirs (forced to absolute)
- message if using relative paths when .blend file hasn't been saved.

Lastly also added '.' for refresh in root paths. Windows
FindFirstFile/FindNextFile also return '.' and '..', but not in root paths like C:

Fixing stuff without using brains... shouldn't do that too often! :)

This fixes my commit of august 13th, that cleaned up the code for
drawing optional buttons for Constraint targets.
Now, Bone target buttons are corectly drawn, when a target is Armature.

(also bug report #4907)

Commit of 2006/08/18, in compositor, had a debug print in armature...

Bugfix #4906

Python API bug: Importing ipo curves did a memcpy() on a 1 item too large
data block. I wonder how IpoCurve_append() would have ever worked...

Bugfix #4892

Compositor: Image nodes used for Movie files didn't convert the relative
paths (if used), so it could not load the movie file.

This bug explains why sometimes movies worked in the Compositor... so for
the current release the bypass is to disable the "Relative" button in the
File Window.

=== MSVC 7 project files ===
maintenance work: removed img module following the other build systems
due to this commit:
http://projects.blender.org/pipermail/bf-blender-cvs/2006-July/007415.html

Added another example for Curve in the epy docs

Fix: Previous check for front and back filling when using fattened curves was
too strict and ignored bevel objects. Fixed this.

Plumiferos bugreport:

The Blur node didn't pass on a buffer when the 'factor' value was not
exactly zero. Tiny values (like 0.0000001) or even negative ones were
still handled by the blur code.

-> Adjustable Tolerance for Knife Exact Snapping

Vertex Snapping for 'Knife Exact' tool was originally set at 75 pixels. Now its adjustable via the 'threshold' value in the editing context of the buttons window. I also changed the tooltip to reflect this.

Added an example to Modifer.py epy docs

fix case on a header. (seems odd that it wasn't caught before but
is consitant with rest of file, so I feel pretty safe commiting it.

Patch from jms: adds attributes effect.disp and effect.staticStep.

Bugfix #4886: deleting a bone would disconnect bones when it shouldn't have.
Thanks to Michael Ward (easybreasy) for locating the problem.
