Play Bar by David Thomas
{fon:tri}

  Do we really need another Tracker player that uses the Fiennes,
Mercier and Farrow player module, there are many (many) programs
which use this module and next to ArcFS and the system modules it
must be one of the most common modules around, so what makes this
desktop front end for the module different? Well it has all the
standard buttons, Play, Pause Fast forward, Rewind and Stop, but
apart from that there is nothing else! So what's so good about a
tracker program with hardly any features? Well, It doesn't take up
much room in the memory or on the disc, this means it can be placed
on your tracker discs, it also allows you to play large tunes which
normally wouldn't play on machines with smaller memory. The down
side is that the player module has many faults; effects aren't supported
etc. This is a great program but it is let down by the tracker module
which is now very out dated.
