Ok! That would at least be usable for me to start with. Thanks in advance!

Can you be more specific on this last one? What are the status-possibilities?
How will DOS display them?
Suggestions for other options:
-fN frequency select: 0 = current (default)
1 = 50 Hz (PAL)
2 = 60 Hz (NTSC)
-tN file type select: 0 = autodetect (default)
1 = USER
2 = EDIT
Further: if you make a TSR version, will there be certain keys to control the
music? Things like STOP, PAUSE, FFW, or so... whatever. In the not-TSR
version, will there be ways to stop, pause, or ffw the music being replayed?
And if you're really going for it: if amber is started without any arguments,
you should get a little MBM filebrowser, like in VGIF or BLS or so... :-)
And what about: A:/>amber *.mbm ? Will it work?

And what if NOT MSX-Audio should play? Also suppress sample replay, I guess?
