I was GOING to be super worried about things like "how the heck do I get #MikMod on Windows" ...but apparently #VLC plays #S3M files *adequately*. Not *good* tho.

At last: is running directly on the of the on the . That's very cool and will help to play music without having an impact on the main CPU (and you do not need to use CDDA). Hopefully this will be integrated into soon 🙂!

Today's bug is a `mikmod` player "stack overflow": sourceforge.net/p/mikmod/patch

On distributions that build C code with `-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3` `mikmod` crashes at startup.

It's caused by buffer size calculation mismatch when offset in buffer is used:

char paneltitle[STORAGELEN];

SNPRINTF(paneltitle + strlen(paneltitle), STORAGELEN, "%c%s%c", ...

It should be something closer to:

SNPRINTF(paneltitle + strlen(paneltitle), STORAGELEN - strlen(paneltitle), "%c%s%c", ...
