BocaSoft System Sounds Developer Kit



The following files provide example interfaces to BocaSoft
System Sounds: 

ssndmsg.c   - Example C code that allows a PM program to find
              System Sounds and play sounds.  Look in this file
              for comments on index values.

ssndmsg.def - Tells the linker this is a PM program.

ssndmsg.mak - Makefile for the above code.

rexx.cmd    - Demonstrates a REXX program using the named pipe
              interface.

os2.cmd     - Demonstrates an OS/2 command file using the named pipe
              interface.

dos.cmd     - Demonstrates a DOS command file using the named pipe
              interface.

ssnddos.com - A small DOS executable that sends an audio device close
              or open request to System Sounds through the named 
              pipe interface.  You may do this manually by sending
              a -2 for close or -3 for open to the named pipe.

              example:  "echo -2 > \pipe\bs_ssnd" - close device

              The ssndddos.com program provides the advantage of waiting
              for System Sounds to complete a close or open operation.

              WinOS/2 audio users may want to send a close to System
              Sounds before starting a Windows session to avoid audio
              device contention.

              example:  "ssnddos 0" - close device
