SYNOPSIS

       milkytracker [options] [input]
       milkycli [options] [input]

DESCRIPTION

       milkytracker is a multi-platform music application for creating .MOD and .XM module files. It attempts to
       recreate  the  module  replay and user experience of the popular DOS program FastTracker II, with special
       playback modes available for improved Amiga ProTracker 2/3 compatibility.

       The program can be used both interactively through its  graphical  interface  or  in  headless  mode  for
       converting module files to wave files.

       milkycli is a minimal version of milkytracker for that only allows conversion options and implies the the
       -headless option.
