| Some clever programmers like "turboccc" recognize the embedded wav
| format and build their own audio tools to manipulate VPM files.
| The file format of such VPM files was described on web page of this
| programmer. Unfortunately the web site turboccc.wikispaces.com does not
| exist any more. I search on the net and also look at wayback archive,
| but the forum entry about that VPM variants is vanished.
| At least i found a forum entry at poi-factory.com with parts of the
| original information. So i replace the old reference URL by
| http://www.poi-factory.com/node/19580 .
| On that site there was something written about bytes at offset 19.
| But i can not verify that information. So i add magic lines concerning
| bytes at offset 19 only as comments.
