Schism Tracker is a free and open-source reimplementation of Impulse Tracker, a program used to create high quality music without the requirements of specialized, expensive equipment, and with a unique "finger feel" that is difficult to replicate in part. The player is based on a highly modified version of the ModPlug engine, with a number of bugfixes and changes to improve IT playback.

minor feature:
Provide undo for "revert pattern data" (thanks @jiffygist!)
Fixed a playback bug where an instrument's volume is zero and has gotten a note off would not trigger the envelopes properly
Fixed a playback bug where Position Jumps and Pattern Breaks wouldn't work sometimes
Add a new config option, keyjazz_capslock, to mitigate caps lock events not being sent properly by SDL (the issue is also marked as "won't fix" upstream)
Linux-specific: libFLAC and libogg binaries are now bundled with the Schism build. To use them, you can either prepend LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/schismdir when running Schism or install them to your global libraries directory
