There's so much ST software that (mostly)
only programs with which there have been problems
in some Hatari version are listed in that.

(For STE/TT/Falcon, it lists almost everything
we've tested though, as there's much less SW
that's specific or enhanced for those machines.)

Only MANDALA program I know of, is 387 bytes in size and doesn't have 
sound.  :-)

It's too large for the mailing list, but if you
send it to me directly, I can look into it.

List archives are here:
https://listengine.tuxfamily.org/lists.tuxfamily.org/hatari-users/
https://listengine.tuxfamily.org/lists.tuxfamily.org/hatari-devel/

And atari-forum.com Web forum has a section
for Hatari, which we sometimes check.
