Bugs:  Playing samples through Soundblaster has problems, I've routed them
       through the speaker for now. (Only a problem when in 's' menu).

	If no MOD is loaded then the scope screen goes mad!


***** Coming Soon

o Adlib Gold 9 bit stereo support (this will sound better than the Amiga!)
o Soundblaster Pro stereo support (this will sound equivalent to the Amiga!)
o Pro Audio Spectrum/ Tandy DAC/ Ibm PS/1 DAC support.

** New in 2.19b

o Protracker support limited tunes to only 3 octaves - it now detects
  if you've got any fine-tune bits set and then limits you - otherwise
  gives the full range (so mods converted from STM format will sound
  ok!)
o Lets you look at the samples in an archived module
o Might work on 8086 8Mhz machines (if you set mixing-speed to 6000)
o ARJ, ZIP, LZH, ZOO multiple files in archives support!
o Gif viewer in VGA 320*200*256 mode
o Graphic scope over a Gif file when playing on VGA
o Config file support - have a look at MODPLAY.CFG
o New output device - Quadrophonic DAC - /xq
o Tags are brighter
o New help in sample menu - filenames default to .SAM
o Pressing C while playing lets you change output device
o New command line option,
  mp /q=c:\dos\command.com kyliemix
  Will start the mod playing in the background whilst exectuting the
  program name given.
o When exit MP it reverts to the directory/drive you started it in

** New in 2.10

** New in 2.09B

o Fixed Help display F1 when playing a mod.
o Protracker compatible - thats an extra 20 commands!
o Started using a source code control system (about time too!) so mp /v
  now lists status and version numbers of all source files.  MODRES has
  got a little big now though (>14k) and looks to get larger!  I've
  thought of a way to halve the size, and may get around to implementing
  it this christmas.
o Partly fixed >40 bug.  Now loads em - but wont play extended patterns
o Added processor speed detect (initially - type MP /v)
o Finally fixed Stereo-on-1 totally. thats it. no more!
o Protracker command - Sample offset =9 - useful for Sampled Annie!

** New in 2.05

o Added Spectrum Analyser mode (try F7/8/9/10)
  Its a REAL SPECTRUM ANALYSIS - not one of these fake ones you find on other
  trackers - try playing a speech wave and you will see what I mean.

o Fixed Stereo-on-1 port that did not work on some machines
o Test of Disney output
o In sample menu, F1/F2/F3 change octave and 1,2,..6 play sample at
  any pitch. (1=C, 2=D etc)

o New directory routine - faster scanning, only 1 pass!
o PGUP/DN now correct way round!

o Now sorts directory into alphabetical order

  prices.  I don't agree with this really, its just as lots of people have
  said they cannot get MODPLAY easily.
o Fixed bug that meant MP2.00á would crash if you didn't have a SBlaster and
  you had two printer ports (or your name was John).

  25. Fixed.
o Added support for 4 track Startrekker modules as these looked like normal
  modules but crashed on playback. (Ghostbust.mod, dots.mod)
o Volumes >128 (illegal) were rounded to 0 when they should have been
  rounded to MAX_VOLUME, only noticable in MCHAMMER.MOD
o Added new key - PageUp skips a complete track

  time being.

  modules (archive must contain only one file with a .MOD extension
