About SAP files
---------------
SAP stands for Slight Atari Player. File in .SAP format contains all data
necessary for playing music emulating POKEY sound chip and 6502 processor,
and some information about music. SAP Maker can convert files from the
following Atari XL/XE music formats:

CMC     - standard Chaos Music Composer 2.0 files
CMR     - Chaos Music Composer 2.0 files with changed bass table
          (created with "CMC Rzog")
MPT     - Music ProTracker 2.4 files
          This extension is for tunes without samples
MD1/D15 - Music ProTracker 2.4 tunes with single 15 kHz digi
          Such music consists of two files: MPT music and samples data.
          These files should have same name and MD1 and D15 extensions
          respectively
MD1/D8  - Music ProTracker 2.4 tunes with single 7.5 kHz digi
          Same as above except for lower quality of samples
MD2/D8  - Music ProTracker 2.4 tunes with two digi channels
          Music in MD2 file, samples in D8.
TMC     - Theta Music Composer files
          This extension is for tunes which can be played with single POKEY
TM8     - Theta Music Composer STEREO tunes (with 2 POKEYs on-board)
AMS     - Advanced Music System (?) files (experimental)
