Can I just make a straw poll here --

does ANYBODY on this list actually use my ProTracker2 compiler? Or know
anybody else that uses it?


The reason I ask, is that I may have to examine and debug this piece of my
three-year-old code; I'd previously thought it was reasonably close to
bug-free, but...

I've just finished writing a piece of music, but when I compiled it for the
first time, I discovered my compiler made a complete hash of the job  :(
Something seems to go wrong when I use lots of different note commands
(slide, portamento, vibrato etc) consecutively.

The point is, if anyone else uses the program and has come up against the
same bugs, I might as well put in the effort of fixing the whole compiler.
And it will be a lot of effort because I remember that program is probably
the spaghettiest m/c I've written...

But if noone else uses it I'm very tempted to ignore the problem - the
program mostly works fine, and produces a good enough result for the rest
of my music so far. This tune in particular I can store in another way,
maybe, or hack the compiled output by hand.
