MegaPlayer¿ v 0.95á,  June, 19th 1994
-------------------------------------

	The MegaPlayer¿ is the Player of the MegaTracker¿. It allows you to
	hear Amiga MOD, MTM, 669 and S3M modules !
	It can work in background as an accessory (rename it MGT-PLAY.ACC)
	or alone as an application (or in background under MiNT)
	You get two resource files MGPL-FRA.RSC and MGPL-ENG.RSC,
	french and english versions to rename MGT-PLAY.RSC

	You can now load modules which have been packed by Atomik 3.5
	Speed Packer 3, Pack Ice 2.4 or Power Packer 2.0.
	I think Atomik 3.5 by Altair is the best packer on Atari.

	The interface is simple and easy to understand.
	It's the classics keys of a CD player, 
	Control Page of modules list is simple too.
	Module list is limited to 200 modules.

	Notice, that my GEM routs are still young and you may have some
	strange things on the screen.. for example if the windows are
	open and behind the formular of an other program..

	Since, depacking has been implemented you can have bugs with
	big modules (S3M in particular) but I never have any problem !

	Other bug is that DSP program is sometime not correctly send by
	the XBIOS and the result is that all the system is blocked.
	The only way to escape this is the RESET button !
