=========================== MultiTOS Dosound() Fix v1.0 =========================== MultiTOS Dosound() fix makes an undocumented function of the TOS call Dosound() work under MultiTOS. Aladdin (and maybe other programs) use a method to determine whether a FM sound is already playing prior to playing their own sound. This feature was never documented by Atari and went away in MiNT v1.00-v1.08 (Eric Smith mentioned that it would work normally in the next release). This patch program catches this call and mimics the undocumented behaviour to prevent Aladdin (and others from crashing). To use DSFIX.TOS, place it on your hard drive and add a line to your MINT.CNF file like (the example assumes you put in in the \MULTITOS directory): exec c:\multitos\dsfix.tos This causes MiNT to load it after it initializes. Remember, this program is only needed for MiNT v1.00 - v1.08. It won't install under any other circumstances. ======= Support ======= If you have any comments or questions about this program contact: Software Development Systems 996 Redondo Ave. #404 Long Beach, CA 90804 310/430-0364 GEnie: S.SANDERS2 Compuserve: 71461,3645 Internet: S.SANDERS2@genie.geis.com ====================== DISCLAIMER and LICENSE ====================== This program is FREEWARE.
