This is the fifth Linux version of The Black Lotus' iXalance demo loader
system. It uses the Open Prometheus True Color library (OpenPTC) for those
who don't have LibGGI installed. The changes made in this version are
internal and don't affect OpenPTC-support as such.

It uses the very same MIDAS Sound System as the Windows version (only a bit
newer one). This allows it to run on all sound cards supported by Open Sound
System (OSS). The display works on all X11 modes (I hope).

The executable is statically linked so you shouldn't need anything special
to run this.

Usage is really simple, run ./ixalance <some_demo_here.ixa> and you're set.
You can exit with ESC or the hard way with C-c...

You can set options on the command line though:
     -mx             Mixing rate x Hz
     -ox             Output mode (8=8-bit, 1=16-bit, s=stereo, m=mono)
     -fx             Use filter (0 = none, 1=less, 2=more)
     -i              Use oversampling (interpolation)
     -sXxY           Force screen mode to X x Y (does not work :(
     -d              Creates a debug file called debug.txt
     -t              Prints frames per second to stdout
