vgm2wav converts video game music files to uncompressed WAV format.

The conversion is achieved by running a sound emulator and converting

the raw resulting stream to an audio file.

This is an Amiga port of the commandline tool

"vgm2wav" (https://github.com/weinerjm/vgm2wav)

by Joshua Weiner.

It uses the Game Music Emulator library libgme by Shay Green

(https://github.com/mcfiredrill/libgme/) for sound output.

Supported formats:

AY ZX Spectrum/Amstrad CPC

GBS Nintendo Game Boy

GYM Sega Genesis/Mega Drive

HES NEC TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine

KSS MSX Home Computer/other Z80 systems (doesn't support FM sound)

NSF/NSFE Nintendo NES/Famicom (with VRC 6, Namco 106, and FME-7 sound)

SAP Atari systems using POKEY sound chip

SPC Super Nintendo/Super Famicom

VGM/VGZ Sega Master System/Mark III, Sega Genesis/Mega Drive,BBC Micro

Some improvements compared to the original:

- Support for VGZ files (gzipped VGM).

- Support for compressed GYM files.

libgme is not able to play everything correcly. On the other hand it's

relatively fast which is a good thing when running on an Amiga.

Select a suitable version for your CPU. Use a large stack, 10000 seems to work.

Amiga port and some improvements by K-P in November 2023.
