Frog Feast for the FM Towns Marty is complete.

The FM Towns Marty is no match for my superior optimization skills. :)

I *finally* got it to run nicely on the original Marty. I didn't have to lower the resolution. I rewrote most of the sprite and text routines (very little of the rendering code was changed though.)

I also fixed a small problem with playing music and sound effects.

The SND_elevol_mute() routine controls the playback of audio and cd tracks. The playback routine was changing the settings, causing the CD audio to stop playing. SND_elevol_mute(127) causes everything to play.

Another problem I had was that a program bigger than approx. 400k causes the playback of cd tracks to not work. I'm guessing there isn't enough free real mode memory to load the info about the CD tracks.

The FM Towns version will be available for sale shortly.
