┌──────────┐
│Using FMTP│
┌──────────────────────────┴──────────┴──────────────────────────────────┐
│ FMTP syntax: FMTP songname(.FMT) ... @listfile -options │
│ │
│ If no extention is specified, the default extention is FMT. That is, │
│ if you want to play a HSC file, you MUST include the .HSC extention. │
│ If a song file of the HSC format has any other extention than .HSC, │
│ FMTP won't understand that it really is an HSC file. That is because │
│ there are no methods to recognize the HSC file format. When specifying │
│ file names, wildcards are allowed. The total number of songs to be │
│ played cannot exceed the limit of 1024. │
│ │
│ A listfile is a file, which consists of many song names. So, │
│ instead of typing in a lot of songs as parameters, you may put all the │
│ song names in a listfile. Also here, wildcards are allowed. Example: │
│ The file goodones.lst may look like this: │
│ │
│ trollmor │
│ thoseday.fmt │
│ emptynes.hsc │
│ os*.hsc │
│ a*.fmt │
│ song* │
│ │
│ To play these songs, just type "FMTP @goodones.lst" │
│ │
│ Command line options │
│ ──────────────────── │
│ -E Automatic load-error handling. You won't have to tell FMTP │
│ what to do every time a load-error occurs. This can be useful │
│ when listening to a songlist, where one or more songs are bad │
│ or missing. Normally the program would have displayed the │
│ error message and waited. When the -E option is used, the │
│ program just ignores it and goes on to the next song. │
│ -F Force FMTP to run even if FM card autodetection fails. │
│ -Onnn Start at a specific order in the song(s). If the order number │
│ is to high for the particular song, it will start at order 0. │
│ -R Random song order. │
│ -S=cmd Immediate DOS Shell. "cmd" specifies which command to call │
│ (optional). │
│ │
│ Keys in FMTP: Press 'H' while FMTP is playing to get an overview. │
