This is a different version of the external "David Whittaker" player
for EaglePlayer 1.54/2.00+. It's a replayer for all (?) known modules
which David Whittaker has released using Rob Hubbard's and his own Amiga
replay routine.

Version 1

Features:

- Analyzer
- Voices
- SampleInfo with SampleSaver (EP 2.00+ only)
- SubSong
- Balance
- ModuleInfo with Position Counter (although they don't have true patterns)
- Volume
- SongEnd

Notes:

1. This player plays David Whittaker (old and new) modules and also plays
   old Rob Hubbard modules (for example: "Leviathan" and "QBall").

2. Note that the "Rob Hubbard Old" format is different from, and older
   than, the old Rob Hubbard modules that can be played by this player.
   "Rob Hubbard Old" might be better named "Rob Hubbard ST."

3. This player plays/recognizes only onefiled Rob Hubbard mods; mods
   with separated samples (for example: "Leviathan") must be converted
   to the onefile format.

4. If you have, or know of, unsupported Dave Whittaker or Rob Hubbard
   modules please contact Wanted Team.

5. If you have the beta version of the "Aquaventura" game with David
   Whittaker music please contact Wanted Team.

6. This player also plays initialized Whittaker mods but it is probably
   better to use the uninitialized versions.

7. This player also plays non-standard Whittaker mods (for example:
   "Aquaventura", "Dan Dare 3").

8. Many (?) damaged Whittaker mods exist. Damaged mods are unplayable or
   will play badly; you can check for error messages with EaglePlayer.
   You should rip these songs again with Exotic Ripper which will
   correctly calculate the length of most Whittaker songs, except
   some old mods (for example: the "Bubble Bobble" module and the
   "Grimblood" module) and some non-standard mods (for example: the
   "Obliterator" title music).

9. This player doesn't play very short Whittaker modules because they
   can crash your Amiga.

   BTW, all standard Whittaker modules (old & new) must always have
   64 zero bytes at the end of module.

10. All (?) Whittaker songs with random subsong switching (for example:
    "Sentinel", "Loopz") are playable now with normal subsong switching.

11. A full list of all the old Whittaker mods that are known to me is
    attached (OldWhittaker.txt).
