XMplay, that brings me back!

I discovered XMplay while trying to play the tracker files of the soundtrack copied from my old Deus Ex cd. I think it was in MOD files, some kind of spicy midi that includes some samples.

I use Linux esclusively since 2006 though.

ProTracker modules, that takes me back to my Amiga days! I don't think I've ever heard them described as "spicy midi" before though. I may have to steal that. ;)

Also XMPlay runs flawlessly via Wine. I have it installed on my desktop for the occasional music file VLC won't play and Qmmp is no help with. :)
