                        Total number of tunes: 555 (62 new)


 Introduction
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
 This is the pre-release testing version of the first Atari XL/XE chip-music
 collection. There is some kind of structure in the archive, anyway, it can
 change till the full version. The whole collection outfit was inspired by
 the HVSC collection (with some differences).


 Statistics
 ~~~~~~~~~~
 Number of tunes:      555 (768 including subtunes)
 Compared to HVSC:     4.8% (HVSC v3.3 contains 11660 tunes)
 Unsorted tunes:       67
 Number of musicians:  37
 Most active musician: Tomasz Liebich      (30 tunes)
 Biggest SAP tune:     Garfield_Part_2.sap (61550 bytes)
 Smallest SAP tune:    Self_Test.sap       (159 bytes)
 Files with subtunes:
  2 tunes: 18x
  3 tunes: 13x
  4 tunes: 15x
  5 tunes:  8x
  6 tunes:  2x
  7 tunes:  2x
  8 tunes:  2x
  9 tunes:  1x
 10 tunes:  1x
 13 tunes:  1x
 14 tunes:  1x
 15 tunes:  1x


 Help!
 ~~~~~
 As you can see, there are lots of tunes in the 'Unsorted' directory. If
 you're 100%ly sure about origin of any of these tunes (Who did it, where
 does it come from, when was it composed), please let us know immediately
 so that we can complete the information about the tune in ASMA (or move it
 to the right directory). We would welcome if you sent us also the binary
 file (or an ATR/XFD disk image) with the original peace of software with
 that tune. Mail any such information to pg@pinknet.cz. Our aim is to
 completely annihilate the 'Unsorted' directory :-)


 For contributors
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 If you want to send me some tunes, they must be already converted to SAP
 format and should include all the information needed (author, name, date,
 number of songs). If you're unsure about any information needed, you can
 send me the music as well, maybe we can find the info together. If you don't
 know how to create SAP files, send me the binary file with the INIT and PLAY
 addresses and memory location where the tune has to be loaded. See SAP.TXT
 for SAP format description. The filenames must not be longer than 26
 characters (plus .sap) e.g.:

 12345678901234567890123456.123
 Intel_Outside_Fractal_Part.sap - all right
 Jocky_Wilsons_Darts_Challenge.sap - wrong!

 Because of compatibility reasons only characters 'A..Z', 'a..z', and '0..9'
 can be used in the filenames. All spaces must be replaced with underscore
 ("_").
