| Examples and API for using the AWE32 - And people wonder why there's not much SB support. The information in the packet is contorted. I could go on this for days. Comments like /* main - here's where the fun begins */ are misleading. The fun actually began several hundred lines ago (starting at line 134). It's late. I'm not exactly bored, but this bit of code is frustrating. I wonder why CL even bothered. There are no technical docs of any sort and the code that is here *REEKS* of bad style. For extra frustration, I unzipped the file which had a self extracting .exe in it, which gave me 4 zips which when each extracted with the -d option finally gives me the SDK. Kneebiter - at 1:30 in the morning. Need more tea...

| Lots of ASM sources, mostly for hardware and BIOS routines - It's somewhat difficult to find what you want, but the comments tell you what you need to know (but not what you have to do) to get everything compiled. Looks like a great source for the cut & paste coder. Given the nature of the routines, I'd say that was the intended purpose of this release.

| Supposedly gets you past the 64k barrier in real mode - I have no clue what compiler this is supposed to compile for. It uses opcodes not allowed in BC's inline assembler, watcom doesn't use that kind of inline assembler (and doesn't need this extender anyway), and this is pointless for djgpp which only compiles 32bit pmode apps. I have neither TC (but considering that's a sub-set of BC I can assume it won't work) nor Quick C (but that's so old, it's inline assembler's probably incomplete too).

It's picky about assembling (tasm32+wlink only). No real documentation to help you get started.

| A freeware assembler with good support. People have been switching from TASM to this assembler, especially linux and 68K coders. It is still being supported by the makers so it understands newer op codes, like mmx instructions, so you don't need to get intel's 'macros' for new opcodes.

| | Fixes the problem with loading *.RAW 16-bit mono sound files into fasttrackerii -- having to press "16-bit" and "no" every time you load a sound, can get boring. this program replaces all your *.RAW files with *.IFF sounds, that load into fasttracker without any fuss. The search for *.RAW files is recursive, i.e. all sub-directories beneath the one you are fix'ing, will be fix'ed too .. careful!! the original .RAW files are ERASED. also, if you have other than 16-bit sound files in your collection, you should sort them first, placing your 16-bit files in a seperate directory, before using FIX. This program is freeware. Enjoy :)
