Known problems/todo list:
-------------------------

Try -n (noscanlines) if your display just gets black.

Dont know how sound works with GUS. But you should hear soundfx if you use SBOS.
Make sure that you have A220 or A388 in your autoexec.bat to get sound! Also if you
have A388 then you must use commandline switch -a (alternate OPL base).

Music doesnt stop when Pausing... later.
