Euterpe is a sequencer for use by bands and home studio musicians. Focus
has been put on composition and Midi interfacing. This version provides a much
better audio support and a documentation update.

The distribution of Euterpe now contains the following files :
Euterpe.lha         main archive with 68000 version
Euterpe020.lha      contains the 020 optimized executables
Euterpef20.lha      contains the 020+fpu optimized executables
EuterpeDeutsch.lha  contains the german translation

The recommended method is to unarc the main archive first in order to allow
the optimized executables to overwrite the 68000 ones.

The features are :
