  - "Scan Buffer" which looks for a memory buffer allocated
                  either by Exotic Ripper or ChipSaver, and then
                  scans directly in this memory for modules !

  - "Free Buffer" which deallocates the buffer and
                  frees the memory.   Also displays Available Memory Status.

                  Enter Author's name, Edit SampleTexts, PlayTime
                  calculation & insertion in the DOS_Comment, and
                  Saving of the original (packed) module too...

  - Modifications in the Graphic User Interface ! All formats
                  now appear in a listview (no more checkboxes), and
                  another listview is used to display all the actions
                  that Pro-Wizard makes (kind of history).

  - Main window is re-sizeable in its heigth (maxi 512).

  - Colors allowed in reqtools requesters, gadtools gadgets, window titles..

  - Come back to "Right Mouse Button" to Uniconify.

  - Internal "Help-Mode" (as the mousepointer states...)

  - The "Status-Window" texts can be saved in a file (ANSI-form).

  - Edit SampleTexts option : so that you can enter some texts
                  in the sample_names. (Module's provenance, compodate,
                  informations about the author, or whatelse you want).

      IMPORTANT : Pro-Wizard now checks if there are some empty
      ~~~~~~~~~   text lines before inserting its informations (original
                  format, ripped & converted by....., etc...).
                  This, to avoid erasing of important data
                  like the author's name & address... Cool ehh ?

  - PlayTime calculation option, and insertion at the beginning
                  of the saved module's DOS_Comment.

  - Saving of the Original (packed) Module as well as the
                  converted module (this is optional !). Useful for
