I'm really proud of it. Believe me, you have to try it! I use it all the time to make cassette tapes of my module collection! Since it's freeware, it doesn't benefit me one bit if you use it. * Send me your ideas and I'll do my best to put them into MODMAN! * On the PC scene, there are tons of different formats of .MOD (Module) music files. Along with these formats are a whole bunch of players. Some players can play only a few module formats, some can play many. Some modules can be played by most players, some can only be played by one or two. MODMAN allows you to quickly and easily select from a directory of modules, associating each module with a player that supports it. Then it makes a batch file and plays your selections. I've tried quite a few other mod-selection programs. MODShell is okay. DMPShell is very good, but I wasn't satisifed. I think MODMAN blows all of them away. I know you'll agree. Configuring MODMAN is a little complicated. I have included lots of sample configurations for you to fiddle with. Basically, it's all set up in the sample MODMAN.CFG - you just have to remove the players that you don't have! MODMAN takes up exactly 0k of RAM while playing MODs! A batch file runs MODMAN, which creates a temporary batch when you have selected your modules. Then the first batch file runs the temporary batch file which plays your MODs. This leaves the most RAM free to your players. Although MODMAN takes up 0k of RAM while playing, yes that's right NO RAM, the memory requirements of MODMAN (while running ) will vary depending on the number of MODs you have in one directory. The maximum number that MODMAN will read in one directory is 1024. If anyone has more than that in one directory, let me know and I can tell you to make some subdirectories. I don't anticipate any memory allocation errors. MODMAN is, of course, freeware! That means you can copy MODMAN all you want, as long as you don't modify it, and you include these files: MM.BAT MODMAN.CFG MODMAN.DOC MODMAN.EXE FILE_ID.DIZ (Please make sure that this description gets into the BBS file listing if you upload MODMAN to a BBS.) Support freeware by using and distributing it! Of course, if you have any questions or comments, or if you think MODMAN is worth a few $, [especially if you want to send money... :-)] please contact me. ┌──────────────╖ ──┤ USING MODMAN ╟───────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ╘══════════════╝ DON'T RUN MODMAN.EXE - RUN MM.BAT! MODMAN requires a VGA card. MM.BAT runs MODMAN and then plays any modules that were selected. Don't run MODMAN.EXE by itself. *** ESC TO EXIT *** *** F1 FOR HELP *** As of version 1.3, MODMAN uses a custom font, and does various neat things to your VGA card. Everything should go back to normal when it exits. If anything DOESN'T go back to normal, please let me know. When you exit MODMAN, it will leave you in 50-line mode if that's the mode you started in, but if you started in anything less than that, then you will be returned to 25-line mode. Feel free to edit MM.BAT to do whatever you want to your sound or video options. Make sure you keep a copy of the original just in case you make a mistake! MODMAN is simple to use. All keys are listed on the right of the screen, and a more detailed keyboard reference is available by pressing F1 then F2. Here's a sample of the important part of the screen... [ A "B" to the left of a line means that line has a blue background. An "R" to left means that line has a red background. Remember that a red and blue background makes magenta. ] ══════════════╦════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ Directory ═> ║ C:\MODS ══════════════╬══════════════════════╤═══════════════════════════╤═════ Module file ║ Module Title │ Module Format │Seq.# ──────────────╫──────────────────────┼───────────────────────────┼───── B MOONSNTA.669 ║ Moonlight Sonata... │ Composer 669 Module │ 1 B CANONMIX.AMF ║ Johann Pachelbel │ Advanced Module Format │ 3 BR GONADSCR.MOD ║ Gonads Cracks │ ProTracker │ 2 PLASTIC .S3M ║ World of plastic │ Scream Tracker 3 Module │ ══════════════╬══════════════════════╧═══════════════╤═══════╤═══╪═════ Player file ║ Player Name & Description │Version│OK?│Used# ──────────────╫──────────────────────────────────────┼───────┼───┼───── R DMP .EXE ║ Dual Module Player │ 2.60ß │ √ │ 2 B WOWII .EXE ║ WOW ][ Module player │ 1.31 │ √ │ 1 MP .COM ║ ModPlay Pro │ 2.19b │ √ │ ══════════════╩══════════════════════════════════════╧═══════╧═══╧═════ In this example, the first three modules are marked. - indicated by blue background First is MOONSNTA.669, then GONADSCR.MOD, then CANONMIX.AMF. - indicated by numbers in Seq.# column GONADSCR.MOD is the currently selected file. - indicated by red background GONADSCR.MOD can be played by any of the three players - indicated by three checkmarks in OK? column GONADSCR.MOD is scheduled to be played by WOW][. - indicated by blue backround on WOW][ If you press space once here, GONADSCR.MOD will be unmarked (deleted from the sequence, loses blue background) and the red bar will move down to PLASTIC.S3M. If you press space again, PLASTIC.S3M will be marked, using DMP. At the very top you see the Directory. This is the current directory of modules that is being displayed. Below that is the list of Modules. The filename, title, and format are displayed. If a file in the current directory cannot be identified, or if there is no player in the configuration file that can play it, then it will not appear in the list. The "Seq.#" column shows the number of that module in the sequence. This column will be blank if the module has not been selected. At the bottom of the screen is the list of Players. The player file (BAT EXE or COM), description, and version are displyed. These are read from the MODMAN.CFG file. See THE CONFIGURATION FILE for more information on this file. The "OK?" column will have a checkmark if the selected module can be played with that player. This information is also contained in the configuration file. The "Used#" column shows how many times the player has been used in the sequence. It's all very intuitive (I hope!), so just run the program and press: F1 then one of: F2/space/PgDn/2 for help on the keys. If anyone tells me that it doesn't make sense, I will write some better docs for this part. Even better, YOU write the docs and send them to me. Please refer to the third page of help for the mouse features. ┌────────────────────────╖ ──┤ THE CONFIGURATION FILE ╟─────────────────────────────────────────────── ╘════════════════════════╝ The configuration file for MODMAN is called MODMAN.CFG. To find this file, MODMAN first checks for an environment variable called MODMANCFG. This environment variable should NOT include "MODMAN.CFG". RIGHT: "SET MODMANCFG=C:\MODS" RIGHT: "SET MODMANCFG=C:\MODS\" WRONG: "SET MODMANCFG=C:\MODS\MODMAN.CFG" If you want to save environment space, simply put a SET command for MODMANCFG before MODMAN in MM.BAT, then put a "SET MODMANCFG=" after MODMAN to remove it. Then all you have to be sure of is that MM.BAT is in the path. If there is no MODMANCFG environment variable, MODMAN checks the current directory, then all the directories in the PATH environment variable. As for the MODMAN.CFG file itself, put a line with just "[MODMANCONFIG]" on it, then the number of players, then the default player to use, then a line with just "***", and then the info for the first player, etc. Here's an example of a very simple MODMAN.CFG file, configured for just DMP: [MODMANCONFIG] 1 1 *** Dual Module Player 2.60ß DMP.EXE @ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 11 12 14 15 The sample MODMAN.CFG file included with MODMAN has all the information you need to configure MODMAN! In case you lost it, here's the information from MODMAN.CFG: ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Anything before the line that starts with [MODMANCONFIG] is a comment. After that, you have to follow the config format strictly. Putting a ~ on a line will make MODMAN ignore everything after it. To comment out a whole line, the first character must be a ~. Any lines after [MODMANCONFIG] that do not belong will cause errors if they do not start with a ~. This means that you can't have any blank lines. If you want to add space to make the file more readable, just add a few lines with a ~ and nothing else on them. *** CONFIG FILE FORMAT Starting after [MODMANCONFIG] line: line 1: number of players - up to 39 line 2: default player to use on startup. If you use a number larger than the number of players, the default will be 1. Then the player records: There must be *at least* as many player records as the number of players specified on the first line. If the file ends too early, you'll get an error message. If there are more players in the file than you have specified, the ones at the end just won't be shown. line 1: '***' line 2: Description of player - up to 36 characters line 3: Version of player - up to 5 characters line 4: Command (EXE/COM/BAT) - up to 80 characters The first 13 characters up to the first space character will be displayed on the screen, split at the '.'. i.e. "DMP.EXE -s22050" Will appear as "DMP .EXE" on the screen And in a batch file: "DMP.EXE -s22050 @MM0.LST" line 5: Maximum number of MODs on one command line If a player is used more than once in a row in the sequence, the batch file will pass (at most) this number of mods all on one command line. Use @ or 0 to tell MODMAN to generate a @listfile instead. It will be passed like this: "[info on line 4] @MM0.LST" line 6: Module formats supported - up to 80 characters Here's what each number means: NOTE THAT THE NUMBERS WERE ALL CHANGED AROUND BETWEEN VERSION 1.1 and 1.2!

You only get the first 20 characters of the title in Composer 669 and MED/OctaMED songs. I can't seem to find any FutureComposer modules with titles so I'm not sure where to find the titles. I have the same problem with many MED types. "Unknown:[filename]" appears as the title in these cases. In the case of ROM files, there actually is no title in the file.

You can't have it. Stamped it! Whenever I write something I think someone else would like, I release it under this name. I'm a first year co-op Math student at the University of Waterloo. If you want to offer me a co-op job, I'd be glad to have the job-search process simplified for me. :-) I don't have a PC yet in my room at University, so you shouldn't expect too many versions in the next five years! I will only buy a computer when I can get the very best machine on the market... perhaps a PowerPC running Linux! You can contact me via Internet mail, Paper mail, or Telephone! I appreciate: Bug reports Information on more file formats Suggestions Comments *** Internet email address: twrathbo@undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca Use finger/mail/talk! I will be uploading MODMAN/MODUTILS to various FTP sites. I may also put info on my programs on the University of Waterloo Gopher server. Finger or email me for information on the latest versions, FTP sites, Gopher info, etc. I normally reply to my mail immediately, so if I'm online when the mail comes in, you just might receive a reply within the hour! If you finger me and I'm online, feel free to request a "talk" session! *** Geographical address: Tom Rathborne 132 Leland Rd. London, Ontario N6K 1T3 CANADA This is my home address. Any mail sent to me here will find its way to me wherever I am! *** Phone: (519) 725-9783 This is my telephone number at the University of Waterloo. Try calling between 10pm and 12pm EST. I have voicemail and a roommate so leave a message if I am not around and I'll call you back (but maybe only for a short time if it's a very long distance call!) *** Other: You can probably track me down somewhere else electronically. Address any messages to "Tommy Rathborne" - my name macro hasn't changed in years! As for big boards, try The Sound Barrier in New York. The 14.4k DS number there is (718) 979-6629. I don't call there often anymore, though. ┌─────────────╖ ──┤ OTHER STUFF ╟────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ╘═════════════╝ *** Technical details MODMAN was created and compiled with Borland C++ 3.1, using the Compact memory model, and lots of inline assembler for the video. There shouldn't be any memory allocation errors. Source code is not currently available. Sorry. *** The Smooth Mouse Driver Because MODMAN is freeware, the Smooth Mouse Driver (SMD) libraries were supplied to me by Andy Hakim, *free of charge*, through Eric Coolman. Thanks Andy! Here's some info on the libraries, and how to contact Andy, straight from his documentation: The SMD library provides a bitmapped graphics-style mouse cursor in ega/vga text modes. It is implemented as an extension to the regular Microsoft mouse driver. The programmer has the convienience of using all interrupt 33h based mouse function calls while utilizing the new mouse cursor. │ US Mail │ Andy Hakim │ 816 Pecore Street │ Houston, TX 77009-6034 │ U.S.A. │ Telephone │ +1 713-880-3059 │ Internet │ ahakim@uh.edu DECnet/THEnet │ uhou::ahakim │ CompuServe and │ Send a message to the Internet address listed MCI Mail │ above. │ FTP site │ karazm.math.uh.edu (129.7.128.1) directory │ /pub/Incoming/PP/ │ Use login name "anonymous" and give your email │ address for the password. │ Bulletin Board │ Sands BBS │ +1 713-961-1604 │ 2400 through 16800 baud, HST/v.32bis │ Use login name "precise point" and "mouse" for │ the password.

MODDIR works like a very simple DIR command, MODNAMES creates a 4DOS/NDOS DESCRIPT.ION file, and MODDIZ creates a FILE_ID.DIZ for SysOps. Look for TUMODU34.ZIP on your local BBS - it will be released at the same time as MODMAN 1.5! *** The Mysteries: Answer these questions for me, and get your name in the thanks section! 1. Where can I find the title in FutureComposer and MED modules? 2. How can I identify 15-instrument files better? (right now I look for one single character in a certain position, which means that any file that happens to have that character there will be identified as a 15-instrument format file!) 3. What makes a WOW file unique? I can't figure out how to tell them apart from normal MODs! In fact, the MODUTILS recognize WOW files as normal MODs. ┌────────╖ ──┤ THANKS ╟─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── ╘════════╝ Format thanks: ... to Fredrik Huss (Mr. H/Triton) for the information in the help text of FastTracker 1.1 which helped me to identify the SoundTracker, NoiseTracker, ProTracker, FastTracker, StarTrekker, and OctaCompositor formats. ... to Edward Schlunder in the FidoNet QB conference for the info on ProTracker & StarTrekker and ProTracker modules with more than 64 patterns. ... to Mark Phipps (Rittmeister RedOctober/Starry Knights) for sending the info from Edward Schlunder to me. ... to Sami Tammilehto (Psi/Future Crew) who documented the ScreamTracker 2 format so well. Please release ScreamTracker ]I[! Nobody cares if it's finished or not! ... to Tomasz Pytel (Tran/Renaissance) who documented the Composer 669 format so well. ... to Draeden/VLA for MODINFO.DOC and the accompanying ASM files that let me know that I had been doing everything right all along! Idea thanks: ... to Eric Coolman for - - letting me know about his MODs that weren't being identified - reminding me to add AMF recognition - calling to tell me that I forgot MODMAN.CFG in V1.0! - asking for a return to 25-line mode when exiting MODMAN - giving me the font-changing code That code is REALLY USEFUL! Thanks Eric! (This means I will probably NEVER support 25-line mode now!) - doing the file x-fer thing with Andy Hakim. ... to Mark Eramian for suggesting that MODMAN restart itself after playing, and also because I found out about a *very* silly bug while trying MODMAN on his computer! A long series of thanks: ... to Toni Nikkanen for the info in the DMPShell documentation about borrowing the 50-line video mode code from NNANSI.SYS ... to Tom Almy for having the 50-line VGA mode code in NNANSI.SYS ... to Daniel Kegel for allowing Tom Almy to use NANSI.SYS as a beginning for NNANSI.SYS ... to whoever wrote the standard ANSI.SYS for making it so badly that Daniel Kegel wanted to improve on it! ... to whoever left ANSI support out of the DOS kernel so that ANSI.SYS was required!

Batch files no longer required for most players! - * now selects only those mods which can be played using the selected player. - Avoiding potential problems: - Temporary batch file constantly changes back to previous "current" directory throughout the batch file in case you shell to DOS while playing and forget to change back to the MOD directory. - Maximum number of modules reduced from 1536 to 1024. Nobody who is even remotely sane has more than 1024 modules in one directory. This will ensure that even if you DO have more than 1024 modules in one directory, you will not be able to go over the limit of 1024 in a DMP @listfile! - MM.BAT Checks ERRORLEVEL (255=success, else error #) - Cosmetic fixes: - Exciting scrollable help screen added. - Main screen quick-help bar improved. - Filenames now "split" at the '.' Filename left justified, extension right justified. - Switches back to 25-line mode upon exit if you start in less-than-50-line mode, otherwise doesn't change anything. - New format recognitions: - ProTracker with > 64 channels - StarTrekker 4 channels - StarTrekker 8 channels - ModEdit - Sample configuration changes: - No more batch files! - Format numbers changed - you'll have to reconfigure! - Bug fixes: - MODMAN.CFG files with no CR or LF at end of last line now read properly. - Stays in same directory instead of exiting with error if you try to change to a directory containing no playable modules. v1.3 - 1993.08.26 - New and improved features: - Search by filename with small letters - Search by title with capital letters - Dir, Random and Clear changed to Alt+D, R & C - Directory history added (a bit buggy but it works!) - Cosmetic fixes: - Spiffy custom font (code courtesy of Eric Coolman) - Extremely 3-dimensional-looking help screens - Main screen quick-help bar expanded - Palette flashes at beginning and end of run - DMP fonts no longer included - I'm wondering if I should integrate them somehow... - New format recognition: - StarTrekker 6 channels v1.4 - 1993.09.01 - New and improved features: - Mouse support! See third help page in the program. Also refer to OTHER STUFF section for information on the SMD kit. - Cosmetic fixes: - Even spiffier custom font - Overscan (border colour) restored on exit - New format recognition: - AudioVision ROM file - New player in sample config: - AudioVision ROM Player v1.5 - 1993.09.25 - No new features, I just put my Internet address in this MODMAN.DOC file, the online help, and the FILE_ID.DIZ.
