Help file for !Trk_Print

Why etc:

Having bought !Tracker from Serial Port, and having composed some very long
tunes, I found it increasingly difficult to keep "track" of where certain
patterns were. So I decided to write this application. The guts of the
program is ripped out of Play_Tracker, the PD routine supplied by Serial Portfor use by programmers in their own games, demos etc: The program is Public
Domain and anyone who wants to copy it may do so as long as they don't sell 
it at a profit. Anyone who does can expect a great deal of bad karma!!!

How etc:
                                   
Double click !Trk_Print and the Trk_Print icon will appear on the icon bar.
Please note that the program needs 640K memory free to run.
It is all pretty self explanatory, but for those of you who enjoy reading
text files I will give a rudimentary breakdown of the facilities available.

To load, drag the Tracker Music file to the Trk_Print icon. 
On the main menu.

Print - print out all or any data you may require.  You may also print from
Patterns, Samples or Sequence.

Info - displays music file information.

Pattern - displays a pattern. To change pattern, enter pattern number in 
menu box and hit return.

Samples - displays a list of the samples used in the tune.

Sequence - displays the pattern sequence in the tune.

Printing - the application has been tested with my Epson MX-80 (yes, it 
still works, ten years old next month), so you may need to modify the print
routine. One may print out a single pattern, all the patterns, a list of
the samples, or the sequence, or indeed the whole lot together if one
wishes. Clicking Abort will terminate printing, once the buffer is emptied.

I hope that you find this application utility useful. Anyone wishing to make substantial donations, or send loads of free software, or write and tell me
how wonderful I am, may do so without hindrance.
