Protracker 4, right? Yes, i did when i had my latest Amiga setup, which was a 1Ghz A1G4XE with Pre4 OS4.0...

It was a cool program, but my favourite is still SoundStudio.

I've checked over the net and on my C book to understand how I can set/clear or test a bit in an int value but it remain unclear for me :(

I've found how to test !

int TestBit( int Var, int itID ){
return Var & ( 1<<BitID );
}

But not how to set/clear.

Can someone help me ?

EDIT :
I think I've found a solution :


void SetBit( int *Var, int BitID ){
*Var = *Var | ( 1<<BitID );
}

void ClearBit( int *Var, int BitID ){
*Var = *Var ^ ( 1<<BitID );
}

Do you think it's correct ?

Yes. A compound variable is built from a stem with arbitrary extensions and can (with a bit of care - it admittedly does not always intuitively work like at least I expect, especialy when you go beyond two levels ) perform lots of tricks for which you'd expect to need hashes or Dictionaries or associative arrays or whatever "modern" languages call them. And then some ... due to the interpretitive nature of ARexx.

Most people never use stem/compound variables as more than a simple array, like e.g. stem.1, stem.2, etc., and perhaps keep the count in stem.0, but you can do so much more.
