Old music disk by Celtic that I patched this evening when I came back home.
Not much to say here, except for the OS routines used to write the text
in the loader part which I had to completely recode to not rely on the OS
at all there wasn't much to do. The RawDIC imager was quickly done and
patching the intro and main part wasn't much of a problem either. What I
find somewhat amusing is the fact that the smallest part (loader, 1024 bytes)
was crunched with ByteKiller while all other binaries are uncrunched.
I have relocated the decruncher anyway and added an error check, if
decrunching fails WHDLoad will quit with an appropriate error message.
I have also added an option to skip the intro, this feature can
be enabled with CUSTOM1=1.
The music disk can be downloaded here:

Enjoy yet another patch and have a nice weekend everyone.
