+ Hello folks !\r
+\r
+\r
+This is libmikmod, version 3.3.10, a portable sound library for DOS.\r
+Comments & feedback are welcome.\r
+\r
+\r
+>> BUILDING LIBMIKMOD\r
+---------------------\r
+\r
+- If you're not building libmikmod for DOS, then you're lost in the sources.\r
+ Go up one directory, and read the main README file.\r
+\r
+This port has been designed to work only with DJGPP compiler. However, it\r
+should not be too complex to make it compile with any other compiler. If you\r
+manage to make libmikmod compile and work with another compiler, we'd like to\r
+hear from you. You'll likely have to write an appropiate makefile, or build\r
+things manually ...\r
+\r
+If you have all proper tools installed, just type\r
+\r
+ make -f Makefile.dj\r
+\r
+To make your library ready to use, copy the files 'libmikmod.a' and\r
+'include/mikmod.h' to your '%DJGPP%/lib' and '%DJGPP%/include' directories\r
+respectively.\r
+\r
+HTML documentation of the library, for programmers, is located in the doc\r
+directory.\r
+\r
+\r
+>> SUPPORTED SOUNDCARDS\r
+-----------------------\r
+\r
+Currently three brands of sound cards are supported under DOS:\r
+\r
+- Gravis Ultrasound and compatibles. Not tested with Interwave cards. If\r
+ somebody has one and can debug the code under Interwave, please drop us a note\r
+ (see email at bottom).\r
+\r
+- SoundBlaster and compatibles. There is only one driver that supports all\r
+ flavours of SoundBlasters:\r
+\r
+ + SB original (8-bit mono, 22KHz)\r
+ + SB 2.0 (DMA autoinit mode -> less clicks, 44KHz 8-bit mono).\r
+ + SB Pro (8-bit 22KHz stereo, 8-bit 44KHz mono)\r
+ + SB 16+ (8- and 16-bit stereo, up to 44Khz both)\r
+\r
+ Note that SB16 should cover AWE32/64 as well...\r
+\r
+- Windows Sound System and compatibles. Most today SoundBlaster clones\r
+ (including the CS4236B card used for testing) emulates (in hardware) WSS.\r
+ That's because Creative Labs copyrighted the SB16 interface and thus\r
+ clonemakers cannot do similar hardware without violating their rights, so\r
+ most of them only emulate SB Pro (see above).\r
+\r
+ WSS supports up to 44KHz 16-bit stereo. The following playback rates (in both\r
+ 8- and 16-bit) are supported: 5510, 6620, 8000, 9600, 11025, 16000, 18900,\r
+ 22050, 27420, 32000, 33075, 37800, 44100 and 48000 Hz.\r

+\r
+We would like to thank everyone who contributed to libmikmod. Their names\r
+are in the AUTHORS file for the significative contributions, but some other\r
+names can be found in the NEWS file. Thanks a lot ! Keeping libmikmod alive\r
+wouldn't be much fun without you.\r
