1. General information
----------------------

This program is a tracker-like C64 music editor running on Win32 or Linux
platforms (using the SDL library, see http://www.libsdl.org)

GoatTracker v2 adds more commands and uniform step programming tables for
waveform/arpeggio, pulse effects, and filter effects. It is likely much more
complex to learn & master than v1.xx.

Familiarity with tracker programs in general, hexadecimal notation, and the
C64's SID chip are required. Consult the C64 Programmer's Reference Guide
(http://project64.c64.org) or AAY64 (http://www.the-dreams.de/aay.html) for
SID chip reference.

For filesize & library compatibility reasons, precompiled binaries exist only
for Win32 platform.

1.1 Warnings
------------

1. Always look at the end of this file for changes! Sometimes keyboard commands
   change etc.

2. Always save your songs in the .SNG-format with F11 key if you plan to
   continue editing! Packed & relocated songs (PRG/BIN/SID) can not be loaded
   back into the editor.

3. Even the reSID emulation is in some cases quite far from the output of a
   real SID. Especially if filters are in use, consider strongly testing your
   tune on a C64 or on a HardSID card. (Using filters has always been
   complicated because every SID tends to sound different.)

4. The editor will stop playing if:
   - The song restart position is illegal (beyond end of song)
   - The sequence of orderlist commands is incorrect
     * In a sequence of both TRANSPOSE & REPEAT, TRANSPOSE must come first
     * The last thing before a RST-endmark should be a pattern number
   - Gateoff timer value is too high compared to song tempo.
   - The song tries to jump directly onto a table row containing a jump (FF xx),
     either with instrument pointers or 8XY, 9XY, AXY commands.
   - The song tries to execute pattern commands 0XY, 8XY or EXY from the
     wavetable.
   These all are error conditions, and trying to pack/relocate such song should
   give an error message.

5. Using delayed wavetable or no wavechange (0x 00, where x is 0-F) in the
   first step of instrument wavetable is unsupported and may result in missing
   notes.

6. When using a playroutine with unbuffered SID-writes and encountering ADSR-
   bugs after packing/relocating, you can try either:
   1) Set pulse-startpos to nonzero value in the troublesome instruments and
      change the 1stFrame Wave parameter of some instrument slightly, for
      example from $09 to $0B, to disable a playroutine optimization. The
      idea in this is to make the noteinit routine take more CPU cycles.
   2) Use a playroutine with buffered writes to pack/relocate. You can try
      the "standard" buffering first, and full buffering if that does not
      help yet.
   3) Try hardrestart attack parameter $F for alternative SID register write
      order.

7. From v2.18 onwards, wavetable left side values have changed. Delay can
   now be maximum 16 frames (values $00-$0F), and waveform register values
   $00-$0F (inaudible) have been mapped to table values $E0-$EF. For example,
   testbit + gate would be $E9. You need to manually convert values $08-$0F
   from your old songs!

8. From v2.2 onwards, a new table (speedtable) has been added. The portamento,
   vibrato and funktempo commands use it. Old songs will be converted upon
   loading to use the speedtable. Note the keyboard command SHIFT+RETURN
   to convert the old style parameters.

9. From v2.4 onwards, pulse modulation speed has 1 bit added accuracy, so
   you need to double pulsespeeds when composing new songs. Old songs will
   be converted automatically.

10. From v2.59 onwards, gateoff timer parameter high bit disables hardrestart
   and bit $40 disables gateoff. Old songs & instruments will be converted
   automatically.

11. From v2.62 onwards, realtime calculated portamento/vibrato speeds are
   supported. This is activated by having the high bit ($80) set in the speed-
   table left side. Naturally, this means that very high portamento speeds (>=
   $8000) or vibrato speeds (>= $80) become unavailable, but these should not 
   be very useful anyway.
   
12. From v2.68 onwards, SID write order has been tweaked for better stability
   regarding badlines. This has the consequence, however, that notes with 
   attack 0 & release 1 may ADSR-bug. In this case, try hardrestart attack 
   parameter $F for alternative SID register write order.

1.2 Compatibility with v1.xx
----------------------------

GoatTracker v2 can load v1.xx songs and instruments, but it saves only in v2
format. Some subtleties (like tricks involving instrument changes) will not
play back exactly like in v1.xx.

The only major feature removal is that of the arpeggio command in v2.
Everything that this command does can also be done with wavetables, and the
import feature converts all arpeggio commands to corresponding wavetable
programs.


2. Using GoatTracker
--------------------

2.1 Command line options
------------------------

Start Goattracker V2 by typing GOATTRK2 in the command prompt, followed by the
songname to be loaded at startup (optional) and any command line options you
may want. For example "goattrk2 dojo.sng -s1 -e1" to set 1x-speed mode and SID
model 8580 and to load "dojo.sng" on startup.

-?   Show command line options
-??  Standalone online help window

Try the command line options if there are any problems. For example, if you
experience choppy audio you can increase audio buffering with -B option. SDL
seems to have trouble with some soundcards under Windows; you might want to
try even a 500ms buffer, or tweak the hardware acceleration level of the
soundcard (from Control Panel). Also, reSID interpolation will take remarkably
more CPU time and could cause the sound and/or editing to get choppy.

Finevibrato mode is on by default. You can change this behaviour with -V
option. Note that finevibrato mode only affects the conversion of old style
vibrato parameters to speedtable format.

Pulse optimization -O determines if pulsetable execution will be skipped when
getting new notes or a new pattern. By default it is on. Be warned that
turning it off will increase the rastertime requirements of packed/relocated
songs greatly!

Realtime command optimization -R determines if portamento, vibrato & instrument
vibrato will be skipped on tick 0 of each pattern row. By default it is on, as
this is how tracker programs have operated traditionally. Turning it off makes
the commands sound same regardless of tempo but will increase rastertime use.

The hard restart ADSR parameter will especially affect how rapid passages of
notes will sound like. 0000 is probably too hard to be useful, except perhaps
with gateoff timer value 1. 0F00 (default) is a lot softer, and 0F01 adds also
a little bit of release to the gateoff phase for even softer sound. 000F makes
the note start very pronounced.

Hard restart parameter with attack at maximum (F) enables the use of an
alternative playroutine, where waveform is written before ADSR. This can give
more reliable note triggering, especially for very fast releases 0 & 1, but 
may change the characteristics of the note's decay & release.

The dotted pattern display modes (-D2 and -D3) display dots in the instrument
and command column for zero instrument (no change) or zero command (no command.)

2.2 Hardware support
--------------------

HardSID support is available with the /H option (use first HardSID = -H1,
second = -H2 etc., return to emulated output = -H0). You must have the HardSID
drivers installed to use this feature.

CatWeasel MK3 PCI SID support is available with -C option (-C1 to turn on).

To use the PC64 cable or a userport RS-232 interface, get the HardSID-DLL-Clone
drivers from Daniel Illgen's page
http://dawork.synchronus.de/

To enable better support of multispeeds and cycle-exact timing on HardSID
(currently Win32 only), download an enhanced HardSID.dll:

For HardSID ISA/PCI cards -
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=9266&release_id=61843

For HardSID 4U -
http://www.hardsid.com

Cycle-exact HardSID buffer length is separately configurable for interactive
mode (-T option) & playback mode (-U option).

HardSID interactive mode:
Low latency mode for jamming and accurate GUI display. Interactive mode can
be activated during song/pattern playback by enabling jamming (space key).

HardSID playback mode:
High stability mode to avoid interruptions caused by other applications/poor
drivers/weaker CPU. GUI display is less accurate in this mode. Set the -U
parameter to zero to achieve the maximum stability (less accurate GUI).

2.3 Keyboard commands
---------------------

For pattern joining to work properly, select the pattern you want to join with
the next from the orderlist first (by pressing RETURN on it). Both joining and
splitting will rearrange pattern numbers (for example if you split pattern 00,
pattern 01 will be created and old patterns 01-xx will be shifted forward in
the pattern order)

SHIFT+SPACE will play from the pattern onwards if playback was previously
stopped, but if it is pressed while in pattern play mode, it will stay in
the current pattern.

There are 2 modes for note entering:

2.3.2.1 Protracker note-entry mode
----------------------------------

This is the default or activated with command line option /K0. There are two
rows of a piano keyboard:

  Lower octave     Higher octave
 S D  G H  K L    2 3  5 6 7  9 0
Z X CV B NM , .  Q W ER T Y UI O P

Octave (0-7) is selected with / and * keys on the numeric keypad.

In this mode there are 2 different autoadvance-modes (the mode can be seen from
the color of the jam/editmode indicator)

GREEN - Advance when entering notes & command-databytes
RED - Do not advance automatically

2.3.2.2 DMC note-entry mode
---------------------------

Activated with command line option /K1, there is one row of piano keyboard

 W E  T Y U  O P
A S DF G H JK L

and octave of a note (sets default octave at the same time) is changed with
number keys 0-7.

In this mode there are 3 different autoadvance-modes:

GREEN - Advance when entering notes, octaves or command-databytes
YELLOW - Advance when entering notes or command-databytes, not octaves
RED - Do not advance automatically

2.3.2.3 Janko note-entry mode
----------------------------------

Activated with command line option /K2. There are two rows of a piano keyboard:

  Lower octave       Higher octave
 S D F G H J K L    2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
Z X C V B N M , .  Q W E R T Y U I O P

Octave (0-7) is selected with / and * keys on the numeric keypad.

In this mode there are 2 different autoadvance-modes (the mode can be seen from
the color of the jam/editmode indicator)

GREEN - Advance when entering notes & command-databytes
RED - Do not advance automatically

2.3.3 Song edit mode
--------------------

< >         Select subtune
- +         Insert Transpose down/up command (shown as -/+ in the orderlist)
0-9 & A-F   Enter pattern numbers
SPACE       Set start position for F2 key
BACKSPACE   Set end position for F2 key
RETURN      Go to pattern
SHIFT+R     Insert Repeat command (shown as "R" in the order-list)
SHIFT+CRSR LEFT/RIGHT Mark orderlist
SHIFT+1,2,3 Swap current channel orderlist with channel 1,2,3
SHIFT+X,C,V Cut,copy,paste channel orderlist
SHIFT+L     Mark/unmark entire orderlist
SHIFT+SPACE Set start position on all channels
SHIFT+RET.  Go to pattern on all channels

SHIFT+SPACE or SHIFT+BACKSPACE set the start/end mark on all channels to
the same position. To clear the endmark, press BACKSPACE again on it or
at/before the startmark.

2.3.4 Instrument edit mode
--------------------------

< >         Select instrument
- +         Select instrument
/ *         Select octave
F7          Go to table editor
0-9 & A-F   Enter parameters
SPACE       Play test note
SHIFT+SPACE Silence test note
RETURN      Go to table position indicated by wave/pulse/filter/vibratopos.
SHIFT+N     Edit instrument name
SHIFT+S     Smart paste an instrument
SHIFT+U     Unlock/lock table scrolling
SHIFT+X,C,V Cut,copy,paste instrument
SHIFT+DEL   (also SHIFT+BACKSPACE) Delete instrument & tabledata
SHIFT+RET.  Set tablepointer to empty position or convert old style vibrato
            parameter

The test note will be played on the channel you last were on in the pattern
editor. To hear filtering as intended, be sure to play it on a channel that has
been selected for filtering in the filter parameters.

Note that cut,copy,paste instrument do not touch the tabledata, just for the
case you need it in another instrument. If you want to completely get rid of
an instrument + its associated tabledata, press SHIFT+DEL.

If wave/pulse/filter/vibrato param. is zero and you press RETURN over
it, you will move to the first free location in the corresponding table. If
you press SHIFT+RETURN, also the instrument parameter will be set accordingly.

If vibrato parameter is nonzero and you press SHIFT+RETURN over it, it will
be interpreted as an old style vibrato parameter (left nybble speed, right
nybble depth) and converted to a speedtable entry.

"Smart paste" will convert instrument numbers in all patterns if you "move" an
instrument by cut/pasting it.

2.3.5 Table edit mode
---------------------

< >         Select instrument
- +         Select instrument
/ *         Select octave
BACKQUOTE   Select table
F7          Go to instrument editor
0-9 & A-F   Enter parameters
SPACE       Play test note
SHIFT+SPACE Silence test note
RETURN      Go back to wave/pulse/filterpos. parameter
SHIFT+Q,A   Transpose speedtable portamento speed halfstep up/down
SHIFT+W,S   Transpose speedtable portamento speed octave up/down,
            or multiply/divide pulse/filterspeed by 2
SHIFT+L     Convert <limit,speed> modulation step to <time,speed>
SHIFT+N     Negate speed parameter (pulse/filtertable) or relative note
            (wavetable)
SHIFT+O     Optimize current table (remove unused entries)
SHIFT+R     Convert note between absolute/relative in wavetable
SHIFT+U     Unlock/lock table scrolling

If you need to insert rows in the beginning of an instrument's wave/pulse/
filtertable, press SHIFT+INS instead of just INS: this way table pointers
pointing to the table first row will not move.

For easier programming of negative modulation speeds in pulse/filtertables, you
can first enter a positive speed positive value ($00-$7F) and then press
SHIFT+N to negate it.

Conversion between relative and absolute notes will use the basenote C-0 if
octave is 0, C-1 if octave is 1 and so on.

When table scrolling is unlocked, each table maintains its separate view
position. To indicate this mode, a "U" letter is visible in the bottom right
part of the screen. By default table scrolling is locked.

2.3.6 Songname edit mode
------------------------

Use cursor UP/DOWN to move between song, author & copyright strings, and
other keys to edit them.

2.4 Mouse control
-----------------

By clicking with the left mouse button, you can select the data to edit.

By dragging with middle or right mouse button, you can mark orderlist/pattern/
tabledata.

Some values like octave or subtune/pattern numbers can be incremented with
the left mouse button and decremented with the right.

By holding the middle/right mouse button in the status bar, a menu becomes
active. Continue to hold and click with left button to select options.

In the fileselector, confirm loading or entering a directory by double-
clicking. Doubleclick outside the selector to cancel.


3. Song data
------------

3.1 Orderlist data
------------------

A song can consist of up to 32 subtunes. For each subtune's each channel, there
is an orderlist which determines in what order patterns are to be played. In
addition to pattern numbers, there can be TRANSPOSE & REPEAT commands and
finally there is a RST (RESTART) endmark followed by restart position. The
maximum length of an orderlist is 254 pattern numbers/commands + the endmark.

TRANSPOSE is measured in halftones. Transpose up (shown as +X) can be 0-14
halftones and transpose down (shown as -X) can be 1-15. Transpose is
automatically reset only when starting the song, not when looping.

A REPEAT command (shown as RX) will repeat the pattern following it 1-16 times.
"Repeat 16 times" is displayed as R0.

There are some rules for orderlist command order:

- If there are both TRANSPOSE and REPEAT commands before a pattern number,
  TRANSPOSE must come first.

- The last thing before the RST-endmark must be a pattern number. If you need
  to reset transpose on song repeat, do it in the beginning of the repeat loop.

In case of wrong order, the editor will halt playback. This tells that the
resulting packed/relocated song would play incorrectly.

3.2 Pattern data
----------------

Patterns are single-channel only for flexibility & low memory use. They contain
the actual notes, instrument changes & sound commands. A pattern can have
variable length, up to 128 rows. There can be 208 different patterns in a song.

The explanation of a pattern row:

 Note name
 |
 | Octave
 | |
 | | Instrument number ($01 - $3F, or $00 for no change)
 | | |
 | | |  Command ($0 - $F)
 | | |  |
 | | |  | Databyte
 | | |  | |
 C-1 00 0 00

The highest note available in a pattern is G#7. To reach the top three notes
(A-7 to B-7), you can use transpose.

In place of a normal note, there can also be one of these special "notes":

 ... Rest
 --- Key off (clear gatebit mask)
 +++ Key on (set gatebit mask)

The actual state of the gatebit will be the gatebit mask ANDed with data from
the wavetable. A key on cannot set the gatebit if it was explicitly cleared
at the wavetable.

Commands 1XY-4XY and FXY bear some resemblance to Soundtracker/Protracker/
Fasttracker effect commands. However, they are different in some ways, so
read their descriptions! Note that there is no "databyte $00 uses the last
databyte"-action in the commands.

Command 0XY: Do nothing. Databyte will always be $00.

Command 1XY: Portamento up. XY is an index to a 16-bit speed value in the
             speedtable.

Command 2XY: Portamento down. XY is an index to a 16-bit speed value in the
             speedtable.

Command 3XY: Toneportamento. Raise or lower pitch until target note has been
             reached. XY is an index to a 16-bit speed value in the
             speedtable, or $00 for "tie-note" effect (move pitch instantly to
             target note)

Command 4XY: Vibrato. XY is an index to the speed table, where left side
             determines how long until the direction changes (speed)
             and right side determines the amount of pitch change on each tick
             (depth).

Command 5XY: Set attack/decay register to value XY.

Command 6XY: Set sustain/release register to value XY.

Command 7XY: Set waveform register to value XY. If a wavetable is actively
             changing the channel's waveform at the same time, will be
             ineffective.

Command 8XY: Set wavetable pointer. $00 stops wavetable execution.

Command 9XY: Set pulsetable pointer. $00 stops pulsetable execution.

Command AXY: Set filtertable pointer. $00 stops filtertable execution.

Command BXY: Set filter control. X is resonance and Y is channel bitmask.
             $00 turns filter off and also stops filtertable execution.

Command CXY: Set filter cutoff to XY. Can be ineffective if the filtertable is
             active and also changing the cutoff.

Command DXY: Set mastervolume to Y, if X is $0. If X is not $0, value XY is
             copied to the timing mark location, which is playeraddress+$3F.

Command EXY: Funktempo. XY is an index to the speedtable, tempo will alternate
             between left side value and right side value on subsequent pattern
             steps. Sets the funktempo active on all channels, but you can use
             the next command to override this per-channel.

Command FXY: Set tempo. Values $03-$7F set tempo on all channels, values $83-
             $FF only on current channel (subtract $80 to get actual tempo).
             Tempos $00-$01 recall the funktempo values set by EXY command.

Master volume is by default the maximum ($F), but it is only reset when loading
a new song or clearing songdata in the editor, not every time playback starts.
If you change mastervolume, you have to reset it manually in the beginning of
your song.

If the command is not 1XY-4XY, instrument vibrato will be active.

Note that the one-shot commands 5XY-FXY allow the previous 1XY-4XY command or
instrument vibrato to continue "underneath" them. In section 3.6 (hints & tips)
there is an example of this.

3.3 Instrument data
-------------------

You can use up to 63 different instruments in a song. Each instrument is
defined by 9 parameters:

Attack/Decay          $0 is fastest attack or decay, $F is slowest

Sustain/Release       Sustain level $0 is silent and $F is the loudest. Release
                      behaves like Attack & Decay (F slowest).

Wavetable Pos         Wavetable startposition. Value $00 stops the wavetable
                      execution and is not very useful.

Pulsetable Pos        Pulsetable startposition. Value $00 will leave pulse
                      execution untouched.

Filtertable Pos       Filtertable startposition. Value $00 will leave filter
                      execution untouched. In most cases it makes sense to have
                      a filter-controlling instrument only on one channel at a
                      time.

Vibrato Param         Instrument vibrato parameter. An index to the speedtable,
                      see command 4XY.

Vibrato Delay         How many ticks until instrument vibrato starts. Value $00
                      turns instrument vibrato off.

HR/Gate Timer         How many ticks before note start note fetch, gateoff and
                      hard restart happen. Can be at most tempo-1. So on tempo 4
                      highest acceptable value is 3. Bitvalue $80 disables hard
                      restart and bitvalue $40 disables gateoff.

1stFrame Wave         Waveform used on init frame of the note, usually $09 (gate
                      + testbit). Values $00, $FE and $FF have special meaning:
                      leave waveform unchanged and additionally set gate off
                      ($FE), gate on ($FF), or gate unchanged ($00).

In case of illegal (too high) gateoff timer values, the song playback is
stopped.

ADSR settings are crucial to getting any sound at all. If all of them are zero
just a very short "click" will be heard. Here is a diagram to help you
visualize the Attack, Decay, Sustain & Release phases:

     V      /\            |<- gatebit reset (key-off) at this point
     O     /  \           |
     L    /    \__________|
     U   /                |\
     M  /                 | \
     E /                  |  \
TIME ---------------------------->
         A   D      S       R

Some ADSR examples:

  A/D 09 Will produce a sound that starts from full volume right away and fades
  S/R 00 to silence automatically. By increasing the Decay value, the fade will
         last longer.

  A/D 00 A sound that goes very fast from full volume to sustain level 8.
  S/R 8A If you increase the Decay value, it will go to the sustain level
         slower. After key-off, starts fading out with speed A.

  A/D CC A sound that rises slowly to maximum volume, then decays slowly to the
  S/R AF sustain level A and after key-off, fades out to silence very slowly.

Instrument legato works as following: When HR/Gate Timer parameter has bit $40
set, no hard restart or gateoff will be performed. When 1st Frame Wave is also
$00, no 1st frame waveform will be set and gate flag is untouched. However wave/
pulse/filterpointers and ADSR are initialized normally. You can also use this in
conjunction with command 8XY to set another wavetable pointer for the note.

3.4 Table data
--------------

Tables control the execution of instruments' waveform/arpeggio changes, pulse
modulation, and filter modulation. All the tables are controlled by the left
side bytes, while the right side byte specifies additional parameters.

Note that you should never jump directly onto a table jump command (FF) either
with instrument parameters or pattern commands 8XY, 9XY, AXY. Otherwise,
results are undefined.

3.4.1 Wavetable
---------------

Wavetable left side:   00    Leave waveform unchanged
                       01-0F Delay this step by 1-15 frames
                       10-DF Waveform values
                       E0-EF Inaudible waveform values $00-$0F
                       F0-FE Execute command 0XY-EXY. Right side is parameter.
                       FF    Jump. Right side tells position ($00 = stop)

Wavetable right side:  00-5F Relative notes
                       60-7F Negative relative notes (lower pitch)
                       80    Keep frequency unchanged
                       81-DF Absolute notes C#0 - B-7

Short explanation of waveform bitvalues:
01 = Gatebit. When on, initiates attack/decay/sustain phase. When off,
     initiates the release phase.
02 = Synchronize. Creates weird effects using output of another channel
04 = Ring modulation. Creates weird effects using output of another channel.
     Most effective with the triangle waveform.
08 = Testbit. Silences sound and resets the oscillator.
10 = Triangle waveform.
20 = Sawtooth waveform.
40 = Pulse waveform.
80 = Noise waveform.

All waveforms except noise can be combined (for example triangle+pulse), but
the effect will be different on 6581 and 8580 SID chips, so use caution.

The way how the channels work with synchronize/ringmod:
- When used on channel 1, channel 3's output modulates the sound.
- When used on channel 2, channel 1's output modulates the sound.
- When used on channel 3, channel 2's output modulates the sound.

Wavetable delay or no wavechange should not be used in the first step of
instrument wavetable. Otherwise, missing notes may be caused. On the other
hand, if you use 8XY command to jump into a wavetable program, those are
allowed.

Using wavetable delay or a wavetable step with no frequency change allows
realtime commands & instrument vibrato to be executed together with wave-
table. Be warned that this has the potential for large rastertime usage!

You can execute pattern commands from the wavetable. Right side
is the command parameter. Note that commands 0XY (do nothing), 8XY (set
wavetable pointer) and EXY (funktempo) are illegal and should not be used.
When executing a command, no wave/note will be changed on the same frame.

Some examples of wave tables (all examples start on table step 1)

  01: 21 00 Sawtooth waveform on note's original pitch.
  02: FF 00

  01: 41 00 A flute sound with pulse on the first tick and triangle on all
  02: 11 00 the rest.
  03: FF 00

  01: 41 01 A "koto" sound that is one halfstep higher on the first tick and
  02: 40 00 on original pitch the next. Gatebit is also cleared on the second
  03: FF 00 tick.

  01: 81 D0 A snaredrum sound, using all absolute notes so it does not depend
  02: 41 AA on which note it's played. Use pulsewidth 800 for best result.
  03: 41 A4
  04: 80 D4
  05: 80 D1
  06: FF 00

  01: 81 DF A pulse sound on original pitch, preceded with a short noise (like
  02: 41 00 a hi-hat or something) that has always an absolute pitch of B-7.
  03: FF 00

  01: 41 00 A 4-note looping arpeggio sound with pulse waveform. Note that
  02: 00 04 waveform does not change in the looping part.
  03: 00 07
  04: 00 0C
  05: 00 00
  06: FF 02

  01: 21 00 A delayed minor chord arpeggio with sawtooth waveform. Each step
  02: 02 03 takes 3 ticks.
  03: 02 07
  04: 02 00
  05: FF 02

  01: 41 00 Use pulse first, but then switch between pulse & triangle every 5
  02: 03 80 ticks while frequency remains unchanged (allowing for vibrato &
  03: 11 80 slides).
  04: 03 80
  05: 41 80
  06: FF 02

  01: 81 CF Short noise in the beginning, sawtooth, after a short delay change
  02: 21 00 sustain/release (via pattern command 6XY) to $2A.
  03: 08 00
  04: F6 2A
  05: FF 00


3.4.2 Pulsetable
----------------

Pulsetable left side:  01-7F Pulse modulation step. Left side indicates time
                             and right side the speed (signed 8-bit value).
                       8X-FX Set pulse width. X is the high 4 bits, right
                             side tells the 8 low bits.
                       FF    Jump. Right side tells position ($00 = stop)

Some examples of pulse tables (all examples start on table step 1)

  01: 88 00 Set pulse value $800 (middle)
  02: FF 00 Stop pulse execution

  01: 80 10 Set pulse value $010 (very thin)
  02: 20 40 For 32 ticks, increase pulse with speed $0040 (64)
  03: 40 E0 For 64 ticks, decrease pulse with speed $FFE0 (-32)
  04: 40 20 For 64 ticks, increase pulse with speed $0020 (32)
  05: FF 03 Jump back to step 03 for a nice loop

3.4.3 Filtertable
-----------------

Filtertable left side: 00    Set cutoff, indicated by right side
                       01-7F Filter modulation step. Left side indicates time
                             and right side the speed (signed 8-bit value)
                       80-F0 Set filter parameters. Left side high nybble
                             tells the passband ($90 = lowpass, $A0 = bandpass
                             etc.) and right side tells resonance/channel
                             bitmask, as in command BXY.
                       FF    Jump. Right side tells position ($00 = stop)

If "Set filter parameters" is followed by "Set cutoff" directly below, both
will be executed on the same frame.

Some examples of filter tables (all examples start on table step 1)

  01: 90 F1 Set lowpass, resonance F, channel bitmask 1 (filter channel 1 only)
  02: 00 40 Set cutoff to $40
  03: FF 00 Stop filter execution

  01: 80 00 No passband selected, resonance 0, bitmask 0 (no filtered channels)
  02: FF 00 Stop filter execution

  01: A0 87 Set bandpass, resonance 8, channel bitmask 7 (filter all channels)
  02: 00 00 Set cutoff to $00
  03: 7F 01 Increase cutoff with speed $01 for 127 ticks
  04: 7F 01 Continue cutoff increase
  05: 7F FF Then decrease back to starting position (speed $FF = -1)...
  06: 7F FF
  07: FF 03 ...and loop back to step 03

  01: C0 F2 Set highpass, resonance F, channel bitmask 2 (filter channel 2)
  02: 00 F0 Set cutoff to $F0
  03: 90 F2 On the next frame, change to lowpass...
  04: 00 50 ...and set cutoff $50
  05: FF 00 Stop filter execution

Note that the second example could also be achieved simply with pattern command
B00 (set filter control, and stop filter execution, because parameter was $00)

3.4.4 Speedtable
----------------

The speedtable is shared by vibrato, portamento and funktempo. No jump commands
exist.

For vibrato:          XX YY Left side tells how long until vibrato direction
                            changes (speed), right side is the value added to
                            pitch each tick (depth).

For portamento:       XX YY A 16-bit value added to pitch each tick. Left side
                            is the MSB and the right side the LSB.

For funktempo:        XX YY Two 8-bit tempo values that are alternated on each
                            pattern row, starting from the left side.

For both vibrato and portamento, if XX has the high bit ($80) set, note 
independent vibrato depth / portamento speed calculation is enabled, and YY
specifies the divisor (higher value -> lower result and more rastertime taken).

Vibrato examples:

  01: 03 40 Vibrato with speed $03 and depth $40. Corresponds to old vibrato
            parameter $34
  01: 05 04 Speed $05 and depth $04. Slow shallow vibrato, suitable for bass
            notes. Not possible to achieve with old parameters.
  01: 83 04 Speed $03, note-independent depth enabled, depth divisor 4 right-
            shifts (division by 16).

Portamento examples:

  01: 00 20 Portamento with speed $0020, corresponds to old parameter $08
            (4 * $08 = $0020).
  01: 01 00 Portamento with speed $0100, corresponds to old parameter $40
            (4 * $40 = $0100).
  01: 4F FF Portamento with speed $4fff, loops the pitch highbyte very fast
            so that a SEUCK-like "space" effect is heard. Not possible to
            achieve with old parameters.
  01: 80 01 Note-independent speed enabled, speed divisor 1 rightshift
            (division by 2).

Funktempo examples:

  01: 09 06 Play tempo $09 on even pattern steps and $06 on odd steps,
            corresponds to old parameter $96.

  01: 24 18 The same funktempo adjusted for 4x-multispeed. Not possible to
            achieve with old parameters.

Note that you can enter old style vibrato parameters, portamento speeds and
funktempo to patterns & instruments, and when cursor is over the parameter,
press SHIFT+RETURN to create a new speedtable entry corresponding to that
parameter. The parameter will now be overwritten by a speedtable pointer.


3.5 Playback details
--------------------

Each pattern row is divided into as many 50Hz/60Hz "ticks" as the tempo
indicates. Some ticks are reserved for special actions, and to conserve raster-
time, certain realtime effects/commands (pulse, vibrato, portamento) are
skipped at the same time. Let's assume a tempo of 6 and gateoff timer value 2
and look at what happens on each tick:

Tick    Actions
0       - Initialization of new notes (no audible sound yet)
        - Orderlist advance if necessary
        - Pulsetable execution only if no orderlist advance
        - Wavetable execution
        - "One-shot" commands 5XY-FXY

1       - New notes become audible
        - Pulsetable execution
        - Wavetable or realtime pattern commands 1XY-4XY

2,3     - Pulsetable execution
        - Wavetable or realtime pattern commands 1XY-4XY

4       - New notes fetched from the pattern
        - Gateoff and hard restart for new notes
          (2 ticks before first frame, as gateoff timer indicates)
        - No pulsetable execution
        - Wavetable or realtime pattern commands 1XY-4XY

5       - Pulsetable execution
        - Wavetable or realtime pattern commands 1XY-4XY

Filtertable is executed on each tick regardless of what the channels are doing.
Wavetable is never skipped, so arpeggios/drumsounds should always play OK.

With the commandline parameter /O0 (or by clicking the "PO" text on the status
bar) you can disable pulse skipping. This leads to increased rastertime use but
can be good for example with tempo 3 tunes.

Likewise, with the commandline parameter /R0 (or by clicking the "RO" text on
the status bar) you can disable realtime pattern command skipping on tick 0.

3.6 Miscellaneous tips
----------------------

- Patterns will take less memory the less there are command changes. When the
  song is packed/relocated, for example a long vibrato or portamento command
  needs to be stored only once as long as the parameter stays the same on
  subsequent pattern rows.

- Using instrument vibrato can make 4XY commands unnecessary and save even
  more memory. Use realtime calculated note-independent speed (see speedtable
  section) if you want the vibrato to have the same magnitude regardless of 
  the note.

- In the instrument parameters, there is no option to stop pulse execution
  directly. So if you have for example a sawtooth instrument, there might be
  an "unnecessary" pulsemodulation going on underneath and wasting rastertime.
  There are two ways you can stop this:
  1) Make a short pulseprogram like this and use it in the instrument:
     01: 80 00 Set pulse $000
     02: FF 00 Stop pulse execution
  2) Use pattern command 900 to stop pulse execution

- If you have a realtime command (vibrato/portamento), you can put "one-shot"
  commands 5XY-FXY inbetween and the realtime command will be unaffected. An
  example:

  C-4 01000
  --- 00401 Begin vibrato with speedtable index $01
  --- 00401
  --- 00401
  --- 0065A Set sustain/release to $5A. Vibrato executes also on this step!
  --- 00401 Continue vibrato normally
  --- 00401

  However, the vibrato would stop immediately if command 0 was encountered.

- Normally tempo 3 is the fastest you can use. However, by using the funktempo
  command you can get tempo 2. To do this, create a following speedtable entry:
  02 02, and point your funktempo command to it. You also need to use gateoff
  timer 1 in all instruments and disable the pulse-optimization skipping.

- For very optimized songdata & player you can refrain from using any pattern
  commands and rely on the instruments' step-programming. Even in this case, you
  can set song startup default tempo with the Attack/Decay parameter of the last
  instrument (63), if you otherwise leave this instrument unused.

3.6.1 Limit-based modulation steps
----------------------------------

You can enter pulse/filter modulation steps in limit-based format, and convert
them to time-based with SHIFT+L. For example, you could enter the following in
the pulsetable:

  01: 84 00 Set initial pulse to $400
  02: C0 10 Modulate pulse to $C00 with speed $0010
  03: 40 10 Modulate pulse back to $400 with speed $0010

Now position the cursor on step 02 and press SHIFT+L twice, to convert both of
the modulation steps to usual time-based steps. If necessary, the steps will
be expanded to several (if the resulting time parameter is over $7F.)

Remember that the player only understands time-based steps and you always have
to convert limit-based steps before they play correctly!

3.6.2 Precalculated note-independent "hifi player" portamento/vibrato
---------------------------------------------------------------------

From v2.62 onwards, GoatTracker actually supports realtime calculated note 
independent portamento and vibrato speeds, see speedtable section for this. 
However, this makes the player bigger and much slower. You can still also use 
the old method of manually precalculating needed note-independent speeds with 
the SHIFT+H function, which this section is about.

The idea is to take the frequency difference between 2 adjacent notes in
the frequency table and manipulate it by bit shifting left (multiply) or
right (divide).

To use, you need a portamento or vibrato command in the pattern, and the note
you wish to base the calculation on on the current pattern step or before it
(before it only for toneportamento) The amount of shift is determined by the
command parameter. A number in the left nybble means shift left and right
nybble right shift. When you press Shift+H while the cursor is on the command,
a speedtable entry is created, and the parameter is replaced with a speedtable
index.

Some examples:

  C-3 00110 Take the frequency difference between C-3 & C#3 and shift it left
            1 times (multiply by 2.)

  E-4 00000
  ... 00000
  G-4 00302 Take the frequency difference between E-4 & F-4 and shift it right
            2 times (divide by 4.)

3.7 Multispeed tips
-------------------

- When making multispeed songs, remember to multiply your tempos and also the
  gateoff timer values! For example, gateoff timer is normally 2, but in a 2X-
  speed tune the same gateoff length would be achieved with value 4.

- If you want to keep vibrato the same compared to 1X-speed, you must multiply
  vibrato speed by the speed multiplier, and divide vibrato depth by the
  multiplier. Remember also to divide portamento and pulse/filter modulation
  speeds as necessary.

- When importing a v1.xx multispeed song, you also need to multiply the
  gateoff timers.

- In the instruments, using Attack 0 might result in a very silent first row of
  the wavetable. You could try increasing the attack, or adding one or more
  rows of E9 00 (testbit+gate) to the beginning of the wavetable.


4. Using the included utilities
-------------------------------

4.1 INS2SND2.EXE
----------------

INS2SND2.EXE converts GoatTracker v1.xx or v2 instruments (.INS-files) into
sound effects, outputting the data as source code or binary.

Usage: INS2SND <instrumentfile> <sourcecodefile> <options>
Options:
-b output in binary
-c output in CovertScript format (deprecated)

Default output is C64 assembler (DASM) style source code

Look at section 6.3 or run the program without parameters to see the
limitations of the sound effect system.

4.2 SNGSPLI2.EXE
----------------

SNGSPLI2.EXE splits the patterns of a GoatTracker v2 song into smaller pieces
for memory use optimization. It is comfortable to compose with large patterns
but usually more efficient memory-wise to use small patterns. Remember! Always
keep the original song because a pattern-splitted song is much harder to edit
further.

Usage: SNGSPLI2 <source> <destination> [target len]

For example, if a pattern is 64 rows long and the target length is 16, it will
be split into 4 pieces. A pattern that falls below 2 x target length, will not
be split at all.

4.3 MOD2SNG.EXE
---------------

Dedicated exclusively to T.M.R, this program converts the pattern & orderlist
data of 4-channel, 31-instrument MOD-files into GoatTracker .SNG files. You
must choose one channel to leave out, and obviously instruments are not
converted, except for their names. You can also specify a transpose in
halfsteps.

Usage: MOD2SNG <mod> <sng> [channel] [transpose]
       [channel] is the channel to leave out (1-4), default 4
       [transpose] is the halfstep transpose added to notes, default 0

4.4 GT2RELOC.EXE
----------------

This is a standalone version of the packer/relocator. It converts .sng files
into .bin, .prg or .sid depending on outfiles extension.

Usage: GT2RELOC <songname> <outfile> [options]

Options:
-Axx Set ADSR parameter for hardrestart in hex. DEFAULT=0F00
-Bx  enable/disable buffered SID writes. DEFAULT=disabled
-Cx  enable/disable zeropage ghost registers. DEFAULT=disabled
-Dx  enable/disable sound effect support. DEFAULT=disabled

5. Using the songs outside the editor
-------------------------------------

Press F9 in the editor to enter the packer/relocator. Choose playroutine
options, startaddress, zeropage address (need 2 consecutive locations) and file
format (PRG/BIN/SID), then type the filename.

If you use patterns longer than 64 rows, there is the possibility that
relocation fails because of too complex patterns. Each pattern row can be 0-4
bytes packed, and the total amount of bytes per one pattern may not exceed 256.

If wave/pulse/filtertables overflow past row 255 without a jump command or there
are other serious errors, you get a warning screen and have to fix the error.

The relocator optimizes & removes when saving:
- Unused patterns
- Unused instruments
- Unused table-entries
- Selfcontained (ie. no jumps to/from outside) duplicate parts of tables
- Player code not needed in the playback of the song

Look at /examples/example1.prg - example4.prg to get an idea how much these
playroutines take rastertime. No promises!

The basic functions independent of playroutine options are:

Init music:

        LDA #subtunenumber       ;Starting from 0
        JSR startaddress

Play one frame of music:

        JSR startaddress+3

5.1 Playroutine options
-----------------------

BUFFERED SID-WRITES - Instead of writing each SID value as soon as possible,
waits for the end of the channel's execution on each frame and then writes the
registers in one go. Improves sound stability but takes more memory & raster-
time.

SOUND EFFECT SUPPORT - Adds a sound effect engine for use in games. Implies
buffered writes. To use, call in the following way:

        LDA #<effect        ;Start address of sound effect data
        LDY #>effect
        LDX #channel        ;0, 7 or 14 for channels 1-3
        JSR startaddress+6

The sound effects have a hardcoded priority system based on their start
addresses. A sound higher up in memory (bigger address) will never be
interrupted with a sound lower in memory.

VOLUME CHANGE SUPPORT - Adds a routine in the player's jumptable to change the
master volume level. To use, call in the following way:

        LDA #volume        ;0-15
        JSR startaddress+6 ;(startaddress+9 with sound effect support)

Note that the master volume command (DXY) also modifies this same location,
so it will clash if you also change the volume manually.

STORE AUTHOR-INFO - Writes the "AUTHOR" string from songname editor to the
location range (startaddress+$20 - startaddress+$3F). Also enables timing mark
support. A timing mark is a mastervolume command (DXY) with parameter $10-$FF.
This parameter will be copied into startaddress+$3F when the command is
encountered in playback.

USE ZEROPAGE GHOSTREGS - Instead of writing to the SID, a memory range in the
zeropage is used for holding the SID register data. This can then be copied
in the main program to the SID, for example to enable the playroutine & music
data to reside under the I/O area. Implies buffered writes. A reverse copy loop
should be used after each call to the playroutine:

        LDX #$18
copy:   LDA ghostregs,x
        STA $D400,x
        DEX
        BPL copy

The copy loop can also be unrolled for more speed.

Note that when you use the alternative hardrestart method & playroutine (hard-
restart attack parameter F) the copy loop should not be in reverse order but
should be for each channel: wave, frequency, pulsewidth, and ADSR last.

If you are using both sound effect support and ghostregisters, there exists
a possibility of sound errors in the case that a sound effect has finished,
and the same channel starts a new pulse-waveform note without setting an
initial pulsewidth value (for example, like in the beginning of Sanxion loader
tune). This is because the ghostregisters are shared between music & sound
effect playback, and the sound effect has already overwritten the previous
pulse width.

DISABLE OPTIMIZATIONS - The relocator removes saved playroutine code based on
what effects & commands the song uses, resulting in a smaller playroutine
accordingly. If you encounter anomalies in the sound (such as ADSR bugs caused
by unpredictable timing variation) you can try disabling the optimizations.
Normally this is not necessary, but is included just in case.

FULL BUFFERING - in some cases, especially with multispeeds, the "standard"
or per-channel buffering is not enough and will still produce ADSR errors.
This enables a functionality similar to the ZP ghost regs, where the previous
frame's SID data is copied to the SID at the beginning of the play call for
maximum stability. Will use more rastertime and imply the same problems with 
sound effect playback as the ZP ghost regs, so use only when necessary.


6. File/data formats description
--------------------------------

The sections in the files appear in the sequential order in which they are
described.

6.1 GoatTracker v2 song (.SNG) format
-------------------------------------

6.1.1 Song header
-----------------

Offset  Size    Description
+0      4       Identification string GTS5
+4      32      Song name, padded with zeros
+36     32      Author name, padded with zeros
+68     32      Copyright string, padded with zeros
+100    byte    Number of subtunes

6.1.2 Song orderlists
---------------------

The orderlist structure repeats first for channels 1,2,3 of first subtune,
then for channels 1,2,3 of second subtune etc., until all subtunes
have been gone thru.

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Length of this channel's orderlist n, not counting restart pos.
+1      n+1     The orderlist data:
                Values $00-$CF are pattern numbers
                Values $D0-$DF are repeat commands
                Values $E0-$FE are transpose commands
                Value $FF is the RST endmark, followed by a byte that indicates
                the restart position

6.1.3 Instruments
-----------------

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Amount of instruments n

Then, this structure repeats n times for each instrument. Instrument 0 (the
empty instrument) is not stored.

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Attack/Decay
+1      byte    Sustain/Release
+2      byte    Wavepointer
+3      byte    Pulsepointer
+4      byte    Filterpointer
+5      byte    Vibrato param. (speedtable pointer)
+6      byte    Vibraro delay
+7      byte    Gateoff timer
+8      byte    Hard restart/1st frame waveform
+9      16      Instrument name

6.1.4 Tables
------------

This structure repeats for each of the 4 tables (wavetable, pulsetable,
filtertable, speedtable).

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Amount n of rows in the table
+1      n       Left side of the table
+1+n    n       Right side of the table

6.1.5 Patterns header
---------------------

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Number of patterns n

6.1.6 Patterns
--------------

Repeat n times, starting from pattern number 0.

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Length of pattern in rows m
+1      m*4     Groups of 4 bytes for each row of the pattern:
                1st byte: Notenumber
                          Values $60-$BC are the notes C-0 - G#7
                          Value $BD is rest
                          Value $BE is keyoff
                          Value $BF is keyon
                          Value $FF is pattern end
                2nd byte: Instrument number ($00-$3F)
                3rd byte: Command ($00-$0F)
                4th byte: Command databyte

6.2 GoatTracker v2 instrument (.INS) format
-------------------------------------------

Offset  Size    Description
+0      4       Identification string GTI5
+4      byte    Attack/Decay
+5      byte    Sustain/Release
+6      byte    Wavepointer
+7      byte    Pulsepointer
+8      byte    Filterpointer
+9      byte    Vibrato param. (speedtable pointer)
+10     byte    Vibrato delay
+11     byte    Gateoff timer
+12     byte    Hard restart/1st frame waveform
+13     16      Instrument name

After the instrument data, this structure repeats for each of the 4 tables
(wavetable, pulsetable, filtertable, speedtable).

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Amount n of rows in the table
+1      n       Left side of the table
+1+n    n       Right side of the table

Note that the tables are a partial snapshot of the current song the instrument
was saved from, so upon loading they have to be relocated to the current free
table locations.

6.3 Sound effect data format
----------------------------

Offset  Size    Description
+0      byte    Attack/Decay
+1      byte    Sustain/Release
+2      byte    Pulse width. This value has nybbles reversed from what it looks
                like in the editor so a middle pulse $800 will be stored as $08,
                and the sound effect routine will put this value to both $D402
                and $D403 registers.
+3      ?       Wavetable. Contains note/waveform pairs (different order than
                in instrument wavetable), from which the waveform can be
                omitted if unchanged, as the value ranges do not overlap:
                        Value $00 ends the sound effect
                        Values $01-$81 are waveforms
                        Values $82-$DF are absolute notes D-0 - B-7
                Note that a note cannot be omitted to store only waveform
                changes!

As you can see, the sound effect format is very simplistic. When converting an
instrument to a sound effect with INS2SND2, following things cause an error
message:

- If the resulting sound effect is more than 128 bytes
- If the instrument's wavetable contains relative notes, absolute notes C-0 or
  C#0, or waveforms > 129 ($81)

The instrument's pulsewidth modulation & filter settings will be completely
discarded.


7. Microtonal tunings
---------------------

Microtonal tunings can be applied by setting using the following options:

/J sets special note names
/Q sets equal division per octave
/Y sets the path to a Scala file

Setting special note names is important for scales/tunings with a number of
notes in an octave/cycle that differs from 12. But it can also be used to show
note names with flats instead of sharps.

For each note, 2 chars have to be given, e.g. C-DbD-EbE-F-GbG-AbA-BbB- for note
names that show flats instead of sharps. The number of notes can differ from 12
and should match the number of notes used in an octave/cycle.

Setting the equal division per octave is an easy way to apply tunings e.g. used
by Easley Blackwood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbuFPpiJL1o or for the
Bohlen-Pierce tuning (Bohlen-Pierce has 8.2019143 notes per octave and 13 notes
in a duodecime-cycle, so it also needs special note names).

By loading a tuning from a Scala file, the /Q setting will not be used, and if
the Scala file comes with note names inside, the -Jxx setting will not be used.
Scala files have to follow the rules described in 
http://www.huygens-fokker.org/scala/scl_format.html and note names can be
applied by separating the name from the ratio value using whitespace. Example:

! bohlen-p_et.scl
!
13-tone equal division of 3/1. Bohlen-Pierce equal approximation                
 13

8. Recompiling
--------------

To recompile for Win32, you need the MinGW development environment, use the
file src/makefile.win as makefile.

To recompile for Linux, use src/makefile.

In both cases you need the SDL development libraries in addition to the SDL
runtime, see http://www.libsdl.org.

Compile first the utilities (datafile & dat2inc) from the src/bme directory,
and place them to your path.

          - Added SHIFT+L which allows to write <limit,speed> pulse/filter
            modulation steps and then convert them to the proper <time,speed>
            format.

v2.12     - Playroutine 1 has buffered SID-writes.
          - Octave 0 is not disabled in routines with sound FX (no matter what
            the relocator says...)

            table values $E0-$EF. Old songs using values $08-$0F have to be
            manually converted!

v2.2      - Added the speedtable for more precise control of vibrato,
            portamento and funktempo.
          - Added SHIFT+O to optimize the speedtable (remove unused entries).
          - Added SHIFT+R to convert between absolute/relative notes in

          - When converting oldstyle parameters to speedtable entries with
            SHIFT+RETURN, the speedtable view will shift to the new entry if
            one was created.

v2.23     - Fixed SHIFT+INS in wavetable (inserts $E9 $00 now as it should).
          - Added SHIFT+U to unlock table scrolling.
          - Added SHIFT+F5/F6 to change speed multiplier.

v2.24     - Added SHIFT+F7 to edit the hardrestart ADSR parameter.
          - Added SHIFT+F8 to switch between 6581 and 8580 SID models.

v2.25     - Added detail to table overflow error message in relocator.
          - Added stop of playback if a tablepointer gets pointed directly to a
            jump (would bug in packed/relocated tune).
          - Added relocator error message for the above case.
          - Added relocator error message for illegal song restart position.

            restart last playmode.

v2.26     - Fixed relocator complaining of FF parameter in speedtable.
          - To increase stability, in multispeed mode relocator does not use the
            "same gatetimer/1st wave" optimization.
          - Changed Shift+O to optimize the currently edited table, not just
            speedtable.
          - Added an option to optimize everything with the SHIFT+ESC clear
            function. This clears unused patterns, instruments and table-entries.

v2.27     - Fixed optimize function with different pattern lengths.
          - Added marking & copy/pasting orderlist data like patterns & tables.

v2.28     - Added sort of mouse control.
          - Sound reinitialization when changing multiplier or other parameters
            is now faster.

v2.29Beta - Internal reorganization.
          - New assembler-based relocator that leaves out unused portions of
            player code.
          - Instead of choosing a player version, one can choose combinations
            of player features.
          - Relocator does not save selfcontained duplicate parts of tables.
          - Added keys 0-9 & A-Z in the fileselector to move to the
            corresponding part of the filelist (if found).
          - Added SHIFT+H to calculate left/right shifted "hifi" speedtable
            values, according to the frequency of a note.

v2.3      - Fixed songdata optimize function.
          - Fixed relocator with no-hardrestart instrument in slot 1.
          - Fixed relocator handling of effect C (Set cutoff).

v2.31     - Fixed effect copy/paste.
          - Added possibility to disable pulseskipping with /O command line
            option. Warning: causes huge rastertime increase.
          - Tempo 2 is allowed. See the tips section (3.6) for details.

v2.32     - Maximum pattern length increased to 128. Do not complain of
            "pattern too complex" errors :)
          - Optimized playroutine init in case of only 1 subtune.

v2.33     - Fixed a bug where relocator was checking pattern 208 (illegal).
          - Optimized playroutine in case there is no keyoff/keyon used.
          - Optimized playroutine in case there are no pattern effects used.
          - Optimized playroutine channel variables in case there is no
            transpose, repeat, wavedelay and pattern effects.
          - If not using the last instrument (63), you can control song
            startup default tempo by using its Attack/Decay parameter.

v2.34     - Added relocator optimization for using 1 or 2 channels only. To
            enable, you must use only channels 1 or 1,2 and not be using sound
            effect support or zeropage ghostregs.
          - Turning off buffered writes in relocator options works now even
            if sound effects or zeropage ghostregs are selected (they will be
            turned off too).

v2.35     - Auto-creation of speedtable entries will always generate a new
            entry (except for song loading), duplicate values will be optimized
            by the relocator.
          - Pressing SHIFT+RETURN over a speedtable-using pattern command while
            the parameter is zero, goes to the next empty speedtable entry and
            sets the command parameter to point to that entry.

v2.4      - Added one bit of accuracy to pulse modulation speed. A new song-
            format (identifier GTS4) reflects this, old songs will be converted
            upon loading.
          - Added possibility to execute pattern commands from the wavetable.

v2.41     - Fixed player code assembly errors when using some pattern commands
            only from the wavetable.
          - Fixed player code bug with command B when command A is not used.
          - Fixed SHIFT+O removing table entries pointed to from wavetable
            pattern commands.

v2.42     - Fixed frequency table size determination.
          - Changed behaviour of keyoff in pattern editing changed to use
            releasenote() like the instrument editor.
          - Added SHIFT+RETURN when parameter is zero to get you into an empty
            table entry for 8, 9 and A pattern commands as well.
          - Added adjustment of table views when changing instrument number
            in unlocked table scrolling mode.
          - Added RETURN over nonzero instrument number (in patterns) to go
            editing that instrument.

v2.43     - Added duplicate pattern detection/removal to song optimize.
          - Added pattern shrink/expand (SHIFT+O,P).
          - Added pattern join/split (SHIFT+J,K).

v2.44     - Fixed editor playroutine to not execute tick n commands, when a
            command has already been executed through the wavetable.

v2.45     - Added possibility to disable realtime pattern command optimization
            at tick 0 (/Rxx command line option or click the "RO" text on the
            statusbar) for tempo-independent portamento & vibrato.
          - To make room on the status bar for the realtime optimization
            status indicator, finevibrato & pulse optimization indicators have
            been shortened to "FV" and "PO".

v2.46     - Added transpose of speedtable portamento speeds (SHIFT+Q,A,W,S)
            SHIFT+W,S (octave transpose, multiply/divide by 2) also work in
            pulse & filtertable.
          - When editing the wavetable, RETURN & SHIFT+RETURN work for wave-
            table executed commands as in patterns (go to table position
            pointed by command, create new speedtable entries)

v2.47     - Added experimental random delay to write of reSID registers, in
            order to make potential ADSR-bugging on C64 audible. The
            amount of delay in cycles can be adjusted with /Z command line
            option.
          - SHIFT+L in pulsetable creates repeated "set tempo" commands if
            speed is greater than 127.

v2.48     - Fixed playroutine to use configurable baseaddress again.

v2.49     - Added /G command line option, guard 1stwave/gatetimer parameters.
            When this is on (default), only silent waveforms can be entered
            as firstwave (only thing that makes sense) and editing gatetimer
            of one instrument affects all of them, as otherwise bugs in
            playback result easily. Use /G0 to turn off.

v2.5      - Fixed "optimize everything" removing the tempo setting in
            instrument 63.
          - Fixed default tempo of multispeed tunes in packer/relocator.

v2.51     - Fixed packing of empty patterns when not using any effects.
          - Fixed differing gatetimer value in instruments causing playback
            going out of sync.
          - /G command line option no longer has to keep gatetimer values the
            same.
          - Added high bit of gatetimer value to control whether wavetable
            execution starts right on the note init frame. If used, will cause
            significant rastertime increase.

v2.52     - SHIFT+ENTER in orderlist view takes the next available pattern
            if pressed on a repeat or transpose command.
          - Added SHIFT+SPACE in pattern editor to start playback on a specific
            pattern row.

v2.53     - Fixed F3 to always play the currently visible patterns.
          - Added BACKSPACE in the orderlist editor to set playback end position.
            Only effective when starting playback from position, not beginning.

v2.54     - Fixed SHIFT+F3.
          - Changed SHIFT+, . to update the pattern view.
          - Changed SHIFT+SPACE to remain in pattern playback mode, if it was
            active.

v2.55     - Added BACKSPACE in the fileselector to go to the parent dir.

v2.56     - Song filename cleared on songdata erase.
          - Added /F to set custom SID clock frequency.
          - Graphics output routines no longer compare text screen buffer to 
            previous to find out if it should be updated.
            
v2.57     - Added alternative hardrestart method & playroutine that is used when
            HR attack parameter is at maximum (FF00 or F800 for example) - this 
            can in theory give better reliability.
            
v2.58     - Cleanup, removal of a few questionable features:
            * Gatetimer high bit to start wavetable immediately
            * Guard 1stwave parameter
            
v2.59     - Songformat version update (GTS5/GTI5)
          - Gateoff timer parameter bits control now hardrestart disable ($80)
            & gateoff disable ($40).
          - 1stFrame Wave can be any from $01-$8F, $00 to leave both waveform
            & gateflag unchanged, or $FE / $FF to control gateflag but leave
            waveform unchanged.

v2.6      - Fixed pattern default length selection display when decrementing
            from a length of 100 or higher.
          - Fixed mouse selection of pattern when adjusting an adjacent channel.
          - Fixed help screen instructions.
          - Changed resolution to 800x600.
          - Changed all songname rows to be displayed at the same time.
          - Changed mouse control to allow pattern column selection even when
            left mouse button is held down.
          - Changed speed of PageUp/PageDown scrolling to be faster.
          - Optimized graphics output.
          - BME library is no longer needed.

v2.61     - Added the backquote key (top-left on keyboard) to select channel
            in pattern edit mode, and to select table in table edit mode. Use 
            with SHIFT to go backwards.
          - Added SHIFT+channel number to mute channels in pattern edit mode.
          
v2.62     - Added possibility for realtime calculated note independent (hifi)
            portamento & vibrato. Warning: has potential for huge rastertime
            increase.
            
v2.63     - Fixed note independent portamento & vibrato to use the last note
            set in wavetable for calculations, instead of the last note in
            patterndata.
            
v2.64     - Fixed paste in table (SHIFT+V) working also without SHIFT pressed.

v2.65     - Fixed raw keycodes over 511 interpreted as some other keys in the
            0-511 range.

v2.66Beta - Initial cycle-exact HardSID support (Win32 only)
          - Permit running without sound.
          
v2.67     - Configurable cycle-exact HardSID buffer length (separate for inter-
            active and playback mode, see /T and /U command line options)  
            
v2.68     - Fixed set tempo -command overwriting frequencytable in 1 or 2
            channel modes.
          - Fixed sound uninit crash with multicore processors (?)
          - SID register write order tweaked to resemble JCH NewPlayer 21.
          - Unbuffered playroutine optimized & modified to resemble buffered
            mode timing more.
          - New reSID-fp engine (with distortion & nonlinearity) from Antti
            Lankila integrated. Activated with /I command line option parameters
            2 & 3.
          - Command quick reference by Simon Bennett included.
          
v2.69     - Fixed click bug in reSID audio output.
          - Newest reSID-fp code integrated.

          - Fixed possible crash on some versions of the HardSID dll.

v2.71     - Added keycode fix patch from Valerio Cannone.
          - Added fullscreen switch patch from Raine M. Ekman (see /X option)
          - Added context mode to online help patch from Raine M. Ekman.
          - Added /G command line option for setting A-4 pitch.

          - Fixed crash in jam mode whan an illegal pattern command was executed
            from the wavetable.
            
v2.73     - Reverted to old playroutine timing.
          - Added full buffering option (similar to ZP ghostregs) which will
            buffer everything to ghost regs and dump the previous frame to the
            SID at the beginning of the play call.
          - Merge song functionality (SHIFT+F10.)
          - Help text is written to console on non-Win32 platforms.

          - Added small color changes to the pattern table for better
            readability.
          - Added isomorphic key layout.
          - Removed the BETACONV utility, as it references a very old songformat
            and also saved in another old format.
          - Added /w command line option for setting 4 different window sizes.
          
v2.76     - Fixed bug in packed songs with no instrument vibrato and only
            calculated speeds.
