NAME
PTFade -- Let a module "slide away" before it's stopped (V2)
SYNOPSIS
PTFade(module,speed)
A0 D0
void PTFade(struct Module *, UBYTE);
FUNCTION
This function does smooth vol slidedown until volume reaches zero,
then the module is stoped and the function returns. The speed is
given in the number of "vblanks" (ie CIA timeouts because it uses
CIA timing instead of vblank timing) between each step.
INPUTS
module - module that is to be stoped.
speed - fading speed.

ptreplay.library/PTInstallBits ptreplay.library/PTInstallBits
NAME
PTInstallBits -- Defines what to be signaled at and how (V4)
SYNOPSIS
PTInstallBits(Module, Restart, Pos, Row, Fade);
A0 D0 D1 D2 D3
void PTInstallBits(struct Module *, BYTE, BYTE, BYTE, BYTE);
FUNCTION
This function is used to inform ptreplay which signals to send to
this task at the given positions. Currently it can only be set up to
signal one task/module (the one calling this function) this may
however change in future. A signalbit of -1 tells ptreplay not to
signal you at that specific location.
INPUTS
Module - module to use the given signals
Restart - Bit to set when a module restarts from beginning or -1 for
no signal.
Pos - Bit to set when moving to next position or -1 for no signal
Row - Bit to set when moving to next row in pattern or -1 for no
signal.
Fade - Bit to set when PTStartFade is done and have stoped module or
-1 for no signal.
EXAMPLE
/* This will set signalbit 4 when the module restarts */
PTInstallBits(Module, 4, -1, -1, -1);
/* This will set signalbit 0 when startfade has stopped the module */
PTInstallBits(Module, -1, 1, -1, 0);
