PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
===================
Voice Blaster Jr Version 2.4 is a Windows 3.1 application
which allows you to queue up any combination of audio wave
(.WAV), music midi (.MID), and any MCI supported files such
as Video for Windows (MCI drivers used). Then you can begin
listening to hundreds of music and audio files while running
other Windows applications! You can pause, continue, and
queue up all audio files in multiple drives and directories
and listen to hours of waveform audio and midi music from
your computer while you work! This version even plays wave
files over the PC speaker. Complete with Windows Help for
playing files and instructions for how to register this
product. Accepts and instantly plays supported sound files
using Drag Drop from File Manager!
Options for playing now include:
Loop mode - Continuously play selected files until you
stop the playing!
Random mode - Play selected files at random!
Autostart - Option which is used to have the VB Jr program
automatically queue up all the files in the
last directory used, and begin playing them
using the last used options (all options are
save at program exit)!

VERSION DESCRIPTION
===================
VERSION 2.4 December 30, 1993
VB Jr 2.4 contains bug fix for random file play when loop
mode is off, and bug fix for adding files to queue while
playing files.
VERSION 2.3 November 27, 1993
VB Jr 2.3 has added support for any MCI supported files such
as Video for Windows.
VERSION 2.2 June 4, 1993
VB Jr 2.2 adds the Autostart, Loop, and Random options, and
a Repeat option for the registered version which will play
a wave file without interruptions continuously.
Also now saves the last file type used (.wav or .mid), and
all the options so that the next time you run VB JR, all
the previously selected options will be defaults, this
program is intuitive!
VERSION 2.1 Jan 21, 1993
VB Jr version 2.1 has Borland Custom Controls and grey panel
added for a more pleasing look and control. Added Drag Drop
support.
Also, there are some minor bug fixes and document changes.
Added access to Help by pressing the F1 key.
VERSION 2.0 July 28, 1992
VB Jr version 2.0 was developed to work with the Multimedia
extensions that are part of Windows 3.1. The advantages are
many, including automatic support for any audio card which
has the Multimedia Drivers. Since the multimedia standard
digital waveform file is .WAV, this is the file used for the
unregistered version of VB Jr 2.0. The registered version
will support the .VOC waveform files.
VERSION 1.0 December 12, 1991
Version 1.0 of VB Jr was written for Windows 3.0. This
version used a Windows 3.0 DLL called "SNDBLST.DLL" written
by Creative Labs. This DLL is not compatible with the
Windows Multimedia Extensions, and should only be used for
Windows 3.0. Support for this version is no longer given.
