 - MainFrm.cpp:				contains the main window code
 - FamiTrackerDoc.cpp:		holds the module data and is responsible for file saving/loading
 - FamiTrackerView.cpp:		used to draw the module on screen and handles keyboard input
 
 - PatternView.cpp:			used to display the pattern
 - FrameEditor.cpp:			the frame (order) window
 - SampleWindow.cpp:		draws the sample graph

 - Accelerator.cpp:			translates key shortcuts into commands
 - Settings.cpp:			responsible for loading/saving program settings
 
 - SoundGen.cpp:			contains the main class for the sound player
