Alpha: 2.0.1 alpha 67

Hi all,

get the latest alpha at http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/

Aside from the usual assortment of bugfixes (in particular removing a 
memory leak in the  sound subsystem under Windows), there's not too much 
new stuff there.

If you've always wanted to know the height of a certain tile, thanks to 
stevenh the tile info window will now this information.  If you didn't, 
you can turn it off with "miscmods.dontshowaltitude on".

I've added support for a second company colour.  This needs to be 
activated by new .grf files that make use of it though, so you can't 
actually see it yet.  To choose the second colour, you open the colour 
window as usual, but then Ctrl-click on your selection.  This will pick 
the secondary colour.  I hope that eventually there will be a nicer GUI to 
do this, but I guess it'll do for now.

In an effort to make the compilation take less time, there's been a major 
change to the patch source code.  As a result of this, alpha 67 may be 
more unstable than usual, although personally I haven't noticed any bugs 
(or else I'd have fixed them of course).  But please let me know if you 
notice anything unusual.

That's it for today, enjoy!

Josef
