 Melody is ProTracker (.MOD) and Scream Tracker 3 (.S3M) music module player
 with file selector and other little features.

 First, I'm not responsible for any damage  this program may cause to you or
 your equipment.  Although  it works  perfectly on  my computer,  nothing is
 quaranteed. Use at your own risk.

 Melody is MAILWARE and totally  free to use.  If you like or dislike it you
 must  send me email, or maybe even a postcard. Contact addresses are listed
 at the end of this file.

 You can  distribute it freely  as long as  all  files are included  and NOT
 modified on any  way. You can also include Melody to your CDROM, etc..  but
 if it's a commercial product, then you MUST send me a copy.

 In theory, Melody requires only a 286 computer with VGA display, but if you
 also  want to  hear something  you must  have Gravis  UltraSound  soundcard
 (Classic, MAX, ACE or PnP),  some nice modules and memory  for patterndata.
 If you  want file  selector to unpack ZIP archives then also PKUNZIP.EXE is
 required.

 If Melody won't  find your Gravis check  that ULTRASND environment variable
 is set correctly. You can also try to run ULTRINIT.EXE.

 Melody doesn't like Win95 at all. 

 It's very easy to use Melody.  Online help can be found by pressing H while
 playing a module.

 You can get the latest version of Melody  from The Official Melody WWW page
 at http://www.pcuf.fi/markoh/mld or by FTP from ftp://hornet.org, directory
 /pub/demos/incoming/music/programs.

 I'm planning to make loaders for MTM and XM  formats in future,  although I
 don't have much  time for Melody. Anyway, if  there's anything  YOU want to
 Melody let me hear it.

 I would like to thank  following  people for their brilliant support, there
 wouldn't be Melody without them.

   Firelight and Thunder for great info about S3M and MOD formats
   Goofy for great help with MOD effects and S3M loader
   Beta for help with OS shell

 If you have any questions  or troubles concerning  Melody don't hesitate to
 contact me. All post is more than welcome. Letter bombs will be returned to
 sender.
