gme_dec v1.0  (C) 2014  Lorence Lombardo.


gme_dec has been developed primarily for future use with playOGG, but it
is quite useful independently also.

 Usage:-  gme_dec <gme_file> [out_file] [R/T/S]

          S = stream mode, R = raw, T = track n

          No [out_file] for info only.

The "S" switch tells gme_dec not to update the AIFF header at the end and
should be used when writing to a file stream device such as PIPE: and
AUDIO:.  


CLI usage examples:-
====================

Saving to AIFF stereo 44100Hz:-

gme_dec stl-01.spc test.aiff


Saving to RAW stereo 44100Hz:-

gme_dec stl-01.spc test.raw r


Selecting from a multi track:-

gme_dec 1943.NSF test.raw t 5 r


Obtaining info:-

gme_dec stl-01.spc


Play via AHI:-

gme_dec stl-01.spc audio: s


Play via PAS:-

gme_dec stl-01.spc "APIPE:PAS 0 0 0" s


Type "gme_dec" with no args for a usage explanation.


Building gme_dec:-

Download "libgme-os4.lha" from here:-
http://aminet.net/package/dev/lib/libgme-os4
Once you have extracted the archive simply copy the contents of the
provided "src" directory to the "libGME-0.5.2" directory. Now change into
the "libGME-0.5.2" directory and then type "mk_gme_dec" whilst in that
directory. If that did not work then type "execute mk_gme_dec" without
the quotes.


NB: Some tracks will require a ".m3u" support file to play correctly.


Tested under a shell stack of 2000000 bytes only.
