[5th upload]  The "-r" switch is now automatically activated.

              Fixed reported error during play.

              Rebuilt with libao/PAS.

              Improved display performance.
            
              Added Ctrl-C message so display is not trashed.

              Fixed 8bit option when in play.

              Added frequency limiting.


[4th upload]  Narrowed the "-r" switch output again as it was still
              sometimes too wide for the display.

[3rd upload]  Added the "-t" switch to save the duration as the global
              environment variable "POtemp".


[2nd upload]  Modified adplay to be more suitable for future use as a
              decoder with playOGG. In doing so it has also improved
              adplay's use independently.

              Added the ms_length to the display.

              Added the "-I" info switch.

              Made the "-r" switch output suitable to a 640 width console
              with an 8 width font.

              Updated this readme. ;)


Play an AD lib mod file:-

adplay -o fmavn63b.dmo


Decode an AD lib mod file to a WAV:-

adplay -o -O disk -d ram:test.wav fmavn63b.dmo


Obtain AD lib mod file information:-

adplay -I -O null fmavn63b.dmo


Known issues:-

The NoFPU build will crash on "ROM2.0" on my test system but was fine on
"OS3.1" with "ROM3.0". (Help on improving this is welcome.)


This has been tested under a minimum shell stack of 500000 bytes only.


DiskMaster configuration suggestion:-

AddMenu SND2, ADplay, StdIO "CON:0/12/640/140/ ADplay";extern stack 500000 \sys:sound/adplay -o %s;StdIO CLOSE
