Hello Anton!

And he’s already smart, you can just die.
(By the way, since then I have not seen a single commander that had a player
general sound)

a) there are no sources.
b) even if they were, I would hesitate to get into it for so long
later, what I had in mind when I wrote this or that piece of code. (volume
the source material was about 200 kilos in storm format)
c) total lack of free memory (it was possible to kill one bank under
copy buffer, but the toad tortured me, and out of 16 cans there would only be left
9 cans is not enough IMHO)
e) the commander was written without a plan, i.e. whatever clicks in my head, that’s what I wrote,
accordingly, everything was interconnected, subprograms were called after one
place, and a code change of 20-30 bytes led to the fact that after this week I
2-3 tried to get this miracle to at least start, not to mention any
stable work.
e) while I was on spec I used version 1.3 for 4-6 months and fatal glitchesdidn’t notice, although I tried not to use the copy function from several
disks per one. (by the way, I wrote about the fact that this function can be buggy in
manual)

░▒▓▌Hello, Oleg!▐▓▒░
You should have finalized the subject before writing something new! Because
the situation is 100% stupid - there is no other way, and what exists is crooked
works. :( At least fix the fact that it cuts files when
copying&ETC and adds all sorts of crap to the end!
