  Trainer Intro (ECS Intro).
  code: Maniac, gfx: Iridon (logo), music: "Mental Madness" by Mel O'Dee
  (ProTracker MOD format).
  review: A nice, standard trainer intro - an OK logo on top of the screen,
  and the rest occupied by text. The text (trainer options mostly) is filled
  with raster colors for a nicer effect, and after a small while a LARGE
  sine-scroller (nearly fullscreen!) comes across the screen, on top of
  everything else. Not the worst trainer intro in the world, quite nice.
  The music is typical Mel O'Dee happy-happy chip.
    Reviewed from the version of the intro released with the Cyber Cop/
  Crystal +20 gigatrainer. No date of release or for the making of the
  intro could be found anywhere =( [glenn]
