- NewIcon (created by me)
- Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')
The code isn't exactly great here and specially the interrupt code
was buggy, I wonder how this music disk could ever work at all.
Instead of saving/restoring the full contents of all registers in the
level 3 interrupt the coder found it appropriate to just save/restore words
(movem.w d0-a7,-(a7); movem.w (a7)+,d0-a7), great idea, NOT!
I also had to add a blitter wait as otherwise the menu wouldn't have been
displayed on fast machines. Other than that there wasn't much to do.
I have relocated and optimised the ByteKiller decruncher and also added
an error check, if decrunching fails WHDLoad will quit with an appropriate
error message.
Enjoy the music disk from HD.
