Implement/finish up some commands and script functions:

** cmd_restart (used in RtZ)
*** Figure out exactly what the second parameter modifies
 
* File-specific tasks:
* Script functions:
** Finish up printText() in screen.cpp
* For all:
* Only soundblaster music is played. MIDI music playing/MT32 instrument mapping needs more work
** sfPollEvent
* Dirty rectangle handling
** sfPlayMusic (for LGoP2/Manhole)
* RTZ Japanese Font (DOS/FM-Towns/PC-98)
** sfGetMusicBeat
** Uses the KROM file found in the base directory for all three
** sfPlayCd, sfStopCd, sfGetCdStatus, sfGetCdTime

** sfGetSynthType
* Implement RTZ loading compatibility if possible.  
** sfIsSlowSystem
** RTZ savegames are not portable between v1.0 and v1.1+ versions, despite internal version being 623 for all.
* For Return to Zork:
** V1.0 savegames are 2 bytes larger (when decompressed by gunzip) compared to v1.1+ (19064 vs. 19062 bytes for English).
** sfGetSoundEnergy (used to animate the mouths of characters when they're talking)
** sfRestartEvents
** sfDrawAnimPic
** sfShakeScreen
* For LGoP2:
** sfHomeText
* For Manhole:NE:
** sfSetTextPos
** sfPlayNote

** sfPlayTele
** sfStopTele
 
=== General ===
* Barth's blaster cannot be moved to the left of the screen
 
=== Graphics ===
* Some screen effects are missing:
** FX 1
** FX 2
** FX 3
** FX 4
** FX 5
** FX 6
** FX 7
** FX 8
** FX 11 (inverse of 10?)
** FX 13 (inverse of 12?)
** FX 15
** FX 16
** FX 18
** FX 19
** FX 20
* Use "dirty rectangles" (e.g. in updateSprites())
 
=== Sound ===
* Music is disabled in LGoP2 and Manhole (it's not loaded correctly)
* Finish up MIDI music playing (only Soundblaster music is played for now)
 
=== Video ===
* Animations in LGoP2 are incorrectly drawn above text (they should be drawn below it). An example can be seen when talking to the Indian as Lydia and performing the kiss/screw action
* Some of the "screwing" animations in LGoP2 are shown very quickly
* In RtZ's intro, after the flyover, an invalid number of sound chunks is read. There is currently a hack which stops the parser when this happens to prevent the game from crashing, but the intro credits screen is not shown
 
== File-specific tasks ==
=== database.cpp ===
* Read/verify database header
* Verify save game header
 
=== pmvplayer.cpp ===
* Read/evaluate PMV file header
 
=== resource.cpp ===
* Implement resource destructors
 
=== screen.cpp ===
* Implement drawMenuText in drawSpriteChannels
* Implement clipRect in placeSprite(), placeAnim() and placeText()
* Finish up Screen::show()
* Finish up printText()

* The screen effect palette changes incorrectly after a PMV video {{Tracker|id=4457}}
* Animations in LGoP2 are incorrectly drawn above text (they should be drawn below it). An example can be seen when talking to the Indian as Lydia and performing the kiss/screw action. Also, with Barth, it can be seen from the first screen if you try and shoot Barth's spaceship: Barth will say something, and the smoke from the spaceship will be incorrectly drawn above the letters
