1 Code in this directory was modified by Paolo Bonzini <bonzini@gnu.org> starting
4 libmikmod was cleaned up, removing code that was needed by libmikmod's
5 portability (MD_) layer and data that were needed by the player. The player
6 itself now forms the core of TiMidity++'s mod.c file but is detached from
7 libunimod which is nothing more a generic module->UNI converter. In addition,
8 libmikmod's own portable file I/O routines were changed to rely on libarc's
11 The code should be compatible enough that new libmikmod loaders should be
12 plugged in without even touching the code (only mloader.c's final part).
13 Some might require changing MREADER * to URL (e.g. amf, it).
