[jmsl] New JMSL release, build 20080505

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

Hi Nick,

Two observations from my class today:
1. setNoteElseRestForMouseEntry doesn't seem to work. I always get  
notes regardless whether I send true or false.
2. ALT-SHIFT drag a note up and down to change its pitch. Doesn't seem  
to work either, at least on my Mac. I suggest not to use the ALT  
modifier as it will be intercepted by Max if the Help in Locked  
Patchers is activated in the Max Options menu.

Georg
