Mr. Frunze, I'm sorry, but you need another version... unfortunately, the version
that you have (x128vXXs) is the SAOM version, that is, Special Audio Output Mode. it
requires a sound card. There is another version (same features
but just not as good sound). you can take it from me with soap or
get it from the Internet from the author’s page. if anything, wash...

Regards,
Random

I explained everything to the author - he’s just too lazy to do it (there are no ABC/ACB/mono options -
but they will be in the next release. Thanks to me :)

+ the brights are slightly different (not like under Shalaevsky) + the tr-dos128 option under
Scorpio for some reason leads to freezing + track 0 takes a long time to read (?). That is, the
boot takes six months to load. + Rage under the Pentagon does not go all the way, but under Scorpio
it displays a text message on the screen a file in which the organization
Inlight once again swears ;)
