1.53.1
It is not the most exciting release, but does bring some important code cleanups and a few mapper fixes. New internal palettes were added for the US and Japanese Sony CXA2025AS, and there is a new audio output filter for the FLTK release. On top of this, the macOS release seems to run smoother than before, so either FLTK or Apple fixed something in the last few months.
