Ed for Prophet 5

[chysn]

Here's a useful and geeky feature that can help with some kinds of troubleshooting, a hex display of the current program's full Voice Dump system exclusive message. Given that I have 1K left after this feature, it was tempting to add a hex editor. But the values are packed in such a way that it would be really easy to make the voice dump invalid. I don't even want to give myself that kind of rope.

You open the Hex View by pressing X.

I rewrote the file management stuff, using sequential files instead of headered files. This allows the use of standard SYX files created by other (usually modern desktop or mobile) applications, or the use of Ed's files within such applications.

There are two kinds of load; one that loads and replaces the entire library, and one that merges into the library from a specified starting entry.

There are two kinds of save; one that saves the entire library, and one that saves marked voices only.

Here's the first draft of the manual.

The manuals arrived today! So time to put this product on Etsy, where I'm sure I'll find it difficult to keep up with demand.

Congrats on completing this.
