  - All Blocks except Block 1 and the Header are ignored,
    e.g. Stereo-Sample-Data.


  History :
  ~~~~~~~~~
  V2.3 (11.12.1994) :

   - fixed internal bug


  V2.2 (21.07.1994) :

   - added possibility to save all Samples from all multiple-SampleList
     and to accept NULL parameters for the Source-SPObject with
     SPO_Write(), so that custom applications may save their self-
     created SampleLists by simply setting them via SPO_SetSampleList().
     The old way behaviour is still supported (as also handling of
     V1 SPObjects).
   - fixed silly bug : SampleBuffer was AllocMem()ed, but FreeVec()ed.
   - in former versions the sourcebuffer had been left "trashed", because
     conversion into the VOC format (via XOR) had not been reversed.
     Now the old buffer is reconstructed after saving.


  V2.1 (17.07.1994) :

   - integrated new "SampleList"-Functions for exporting more than one
     sample
   - fixed subtype strings (one blank too much)


  V1.4 (29.04.1994) :

   - now there's more information given about the loaded Sample
   - like in WAV.spobject the LONGword macro for IntelToMotorola (and
     reverse) conversion was not correctly implemented.
     This did not affected working at all, because inside the supported
     VOC-Blocks no LONGwords exist !
     So this was only done to prevent future bugs.
   - fixed (hopefully) "header not located" problems within memory
     delocation
   - and more


  V1.3 (30.03.1994) :

   - replaced SAS/C's sprintf()-routine with own, RawDoFmt()-based one.
     This saves about 1800 Bytes.
   - "utility.library" is not used, because this crashes the Player-Task
     and no reason for this could be found.


  V1.2 (25.02.1994) :

   - fixed small bug in memory management routines


  V1.1 (16.01.1994) :

   - first version
