Play tracker audio files #34

It would be great if there was support for playing module/tracker file lumps in wads. It looks like this JavaScript library would be a good solution for it (with a version of it on npm here if the project starts using a build system like Webpack or something).

Ah thanks for the link! I'll look into getting this sorted.

Just to clarify what the OP is asking, basically he wants support for chiptune, i.e https://www.doomworld.com/idgames/music/chipdoom, which is not native to Doom.

I'm familiar with tracker music, and it is occasionally used as an alternative music format since most modern Doom ports have support for them.

For implementation, wad.js will need to be able to easily detect all the formats supported by libopenmpt/whichever library is used, but this will hopefully be a trivial header check.
