"""Convert DeskMate 3 Sound Editor .SND files to 8-bit mono WAV files.

The bundled DeskMate 3 files use the 2500-series .SND container: a 114-byte
header followed by linked 46-byte sample descriptors.  Uncompressed samples
are unsigned 8-bit PCM.  Music-compressed samples are decoded from the native
COMPRESS.RES codebook and nibble stream.

"""Extract the "Lakers versus Celtics and the NBA Playoffs" title music and sound effects as Tandy VGM.

The selected Tandy sound resource is the game's ``T`` file.  BBALL.EXE
decodes it in place and then uses it for both the title-screen score in ``S``
and ten embedded effect-command entries.  This script models both sides of
that driver and records its SN76489-compatible port writes in VGM 1.71 files.
The game does not attach names to the effect entries, so those outputs keep
their stable command indices (00 through 09).

"""Extract Fire Hawk's Tandy/PCjr and Sound Blaster soundtracks as VGM files.

The DOS release stores each song as an LSB-first Sierra LZW resource named
SSnnn.  Every unpacked sound resource contains several hardware-specific
tracks.  This converter selects track 0x13 for the three-voice PCjr/Tandy
versions and track 0x08 for the nine-voice Sound Blaster OPL2 versions.  It
uses the matching PATCH.101 and PATCH.003 data and models the respective
Sierra music-driver register writes.

About Swift Philosophy

Swift is friendly to new programmers. It is the first industrial-quality systems programming language that is as expressive and enjoyable as a scripting language.

The compiler is optimized for performance, and the language is optimized for development, without compromising on either. It’s designed to scale from “hello, world” to an entire operating system.
