Having sat down at the keyboard, I decided to draw a letter for you Roman.

Once I was in a museum and there on an old, old stone an ancient man carved that

It’s the same thing here in Rostov - Pt3 is available, but there is no help. Although our muzaker has already mastered it more or less, much is still not clear. Maybe someone will actually pull out some help.
And, by the way, there seem to be people here from Voronezh, I wonder how GOLDEN DISK and
are doing there, are they still on Speccy? Maybe they will take part in FT'98, NICK would stir up the demo :)

This is really fun... PT3 along with the help was recently
written by Golden Disk from Voronezh. Either you have a beta version there or
Russian pirates really work very quickly.

2ALL: The full version of PT3 will most likely be available for purchase from XL-Design soon
time. For more accurate information please contact 2:5025/38.49

Damn, where's the leak? Best friends are the worst enemies :((((

Nick added pt3, but didn’t do help. Wrote a couple of kb about commands, etc.
I had to finish writing in a hurry.
Now he has a Pentium 166, sits, plays. Knows a good ASM, like something
he even wrote. JV graphics drew a bunch of graphics (I’d rather not use the spec saw)
and now collects the PC. (but will draw) And Lob has given up everything, but he has a
fidosh address. If you throw soap at him, then maybe he’ll write something.
Who needs them on the PC?

We have version 3.31 in 5061, in the info it says full! A special rule is that
this product buys music (uncompiled) from Sound Tracker, Sound Tracker
Pro, PT 2.XX maybe also from PT 1.XX, but we don’t have muzaks from it, so I don’t know.
According to our muzaker, PT3 is the most powerful edit for today. Well, in my
opinion, i.e. encoder - too, but it’s a pity that plzyer’s length is about 3 kb and
time consumes 4500-4700 cycles, but there are a lot of bells and whistles there, it would be more helpful!!!

It's unfortunate :(

ML> PS. And from whom did you get PT3? Purely sporting interest.
We were standing at the market one day, two types came up, they said that there were new ones, well, out of 12 discs
we selected 4 discs for ourselves, on one of them we found PT3. The types are not Rostov.

This is not for me, imho in ZF#8 it seems that PT3 itself will be subj too. So we have to
wait. :)
