Well, I'm aware of how other editors/players work. I was intending to
do the packing part as a part of this editor program, so one could
choose to save a tune either as a RLE-packed dump of the music data
for worktunes just to save disk space or as packed
ready-to-be-used-binaries on the other hand. If I ever needed to
relocate a tune I was hoping simply to be able to recompile the editor
and specify a new location for the player and thus avoiding to write a
special tool for relocation. But, then again, I guess I might just do
precisely that.. Oh well..
