File: jak_o_shadows.au
Descr: brief tune of "Jak o' the Shadows" from R. Jordan's "Wheel of Time"

Addendum a/o 19 Jan 98, by Rick Moen <rick@linuxmafia.com>:
The original "jak_o_shadows.au" file was a "raw"-type Sun Microsystems
sound file (without identifying header information), also known as
U-law format. Many computers cannot understand ".au" files without
the optional identification header.
So, I've created a replacement "jak_o_shadows.au" file _with_ that header
information, and renamed the original as "jak_o_shadows.ul". Therefore,
your software probably won't choke on the (new) .au rendition, even if it
does on the "raw U-law" (.ul) original.
At the same time, I generated three new variant versions that some may
find more accessible:
jak_o_shadows.aiff is an Apple/Silicon Graphics AIFF file.
jak_o_shadows.voc is a Creative Labs SoundBlaster VOC file.
jak_o_shadows.wav is a Microsoft Windows 3.0 RIFF (.WAV) file.
also:
jak_o_shadows.snd is the same as the new jak_o_shadows.au
All files are 8-bit sampled at 8000 Hz, and monaural.

On account of staggering demand for bandwidth, I've replaced all of the
above files with gzipped versions.
