Linrad-02.00

Hi All,

Multithreaded Linrad is now available for normal receiving
functions under Linux and Microsoft Windows.

Support and side functions are generally untested and may
produce different kinds of errors.

There is a modest penalty in going from a single thread
with tight timing control to a multi-threaded structure.
To run a specific combination of soundcards with 
identical processing parameters Linrad-02.00 will need
a somewhat faster CPU and some more memory compared to
the Linrad-01.xx series.

There is a big penalty for using Microsoft Windows. A much
faster CPU is required......(But today that is not any
problem at all.)

            ---  Unsolved problems  ---

1) Linrad can not read or write to the parallel port.
I know it can be solved. Others have done it so I hope
someone else can make the necessary additions:-)

2) Delta44, Lynx Two and presumably all other 32 bit
capable soundcards only give 16 bits. The reason is 
most probably that I open in WAVE_FORMAT_PCM with the
WinAPI waveInOpen function. Here is what Microsoft
