--- ModInfo v1.3 ---
© Gryzor - Melun Club DeLiRiUm !
This file is a part of the REGISTERED VERSION of Pro-Wizard 2 !
It only works with OS 2.0+, as well as Pro-Wizard !
Short doc:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
ModInfo is a little tool whose job is to display all informations about
a Protracker module, like the MODINFO function in FileMaster, you see ?
I decided to write this because this function is missing in DOpus.
You can run it from CLI/SHELL, by typing :
ModInfo <file> ; only protracker modules of course...
Or, for a better use, you can include it in one of your BUTTONS in DOPUS...
Just create the button, and enter this in the command line :
ModInfo {f} ; ModInfo must be in a directory known by
; your PATH: (i.e 'C:' or 'Bin:')
And, also specify "AmigaDOS".
Don't forget the flags "Do all files" and "Output to file" !
Then, you'll be able to display the module_info of each module converted
by Pro-Wizard-2, the song name, each sample length, vol, repeat & replen,
and the number of patterns & positions in the song.
***********************
New in v1.3 :
~~~~~~~~~~~
You can remove ModInfo from the list of xData-Clients !!
Now, ModInfo makes use of XPKmaster.library to do its work, but there is a
new improvement again : it doesn't decrunch the whole module anymore !! :)
It uses the XpkRead() function, to unpack the beginning of the module ONLY,
so that users with low memory will be able, now, to make some ModInfos on
very large xPacked modules, as over 1meg and more... Are you happy ? ;)
Second advantage : it's obviously VERY FASTER now ! No need to wait for
the whole file to be decrunched.
Special:
~~~~~~~~~~
As it seems that more and more modules use samples with a length
higher than $FFFF (65535), I have been forced to modify my Protracker
check-routines to make them recognize these modules...
(Although you CAN'T do this within Protracker itself, anyway, it accepts
to play such modules but refuses to load/edit samples larger than 64kb !).
New in v1.2 :
~~~~~~~~~~~
It now checks your kickstart, and correctly reads the given parameter ;)
Add: It also displays the Patterns Length,
Samples Length,
& the Total Module Length.
