Hello. I need some help. I'm looking for a MOD file player/creator for the amiga. Does anyone know the name of one? I looked in the file menu, and didn't see one. Also, what do I need to be able to view GIF files? I have a 2000, with 5 megs of memory, and an 030 accelerator board. any help would be appreciated. <<–Ted–Atari–>>

Ted, In AmigaArts Library 7: MXTRAC.LHA PT315.LHA QC20.LHA MED322.LZH NOISE2.LZH PT315.LHA (Protracker) is good, but this archive has no docs. Just load in some mods and learn by example. OTOH, MED322.lha is also good, has docs, but its file format is slightly different than Protracker. It comes with its own player, and has example source code for adding MED support to your own software. For GIFs, ger VTEK21.lha in AmigaArts Library 14. It also understands JPEG, and possibly more. (Haven't started reading the docs.) Stuart
