A fast VGA card (tested with ET4000/W32)

SO WHAT IS THIS PROGRAM FOR ?

This demo isn't a real demo, you can influence it's styl by starting
the program with a different module (only S3M/XM modules accepted)!
That means if you watch the program with a different module the
program will creat a "new" demo for this module.
E.g. E-BEAT GOODSONG.S3M will start the demo with the module GOODSONG.S3M.
The other way is you can creat a textfile with a list of modules
which will play one-by-one in the demo. The syntax of the textfile
is:       number of all modules in this list
<filename>.S3M/XM
<filename>.S3M/XM
... and so on.  	       (see test.txt for an example)
and start the program with E-BEAT <filename.txt>
If you start the program without a parameter you will hear the
music which coming with this package.

Keys you can use inside the program:
- Left  arrow - Decrease the delayfactor by one
- Right arrow - Increase the delayfactor by one
-    Plus     - Next module (if a list was created)
-   Minus     - Prev. module (if a list was created)
-    PgUp     - Next pattern
-   PgDown    - Prev. pattern
-     ESC     - Quit

The delayfactor is used for handling the effects that means if the
delayfactor is e.g 15 the effects will change very slow if the
delayfactor is 1 or 0 the effects will change very quick.

PROBLEMS

If you have a Sound Blaster mono card, the program may crach on your
system, because the module which coming with this package has some
16bit samples, sorry for that. If you still want to watch this demo
you should try some other S3M/XM modules which don't use 16bit samples.
