  (CoreAudio) and might migrate to other platforms soon.

- 09/05/04 (0.6.0b):
Added two new fileformats (.DSM and .AMF) and fixed a few
bugs in the replay routines plus you can now also play
modules by opening them in the file explorer on your device
(even if MilkyPlay is currently playing another module)

- 08/29/04 (0.5.0b):
Added support for Screamtracker 3 songs (might still be a
little bit buggy) and fixed some more bugs you might have
not noticed so far ;)

- 08/23/04 (0.3.0b):
I spent the last 3 weeks rewriting the player-core to be
more implementation-friendly because i wanted to have a
robust, stable SFX API for PocketPC games and came up
with this little application. I hope you like it...
Please note that this GUI is a 2 days project and i only had
two devices to test it on. (Toshiba e310 (ARM) and
Casio EM-500 (MIPS)). It might contain quite a few bugs
and i did not optimize the ARM version very well.
To be continued...

- Introduction:
MilkyPlay started off in 1997 when i decided to code my own
module playing routines for Win95 - mainly for demo coding
purposes - but unfortunately it was never used.


If you're interested in coding-talk or if you think you can
tell me how to write really fast software-mixing routines
or whatever don't hesitate to contact me!
