- AGMSPlaySound is a Modula-2 program which plays sound samples from disk.
-
- Since AGMSPlaySound doesn't load the whole sample into memory, you can
- play samples longer than your memory size (up to 2 gigabytes). It also
- leaves lots of memory free for other uses (such as running several other
- AGMSPlaySounds simultaneously, for quadraphonic sound :-). Unlike some
- other sound playing programs, AGMSPlaySound can play from floppy disk
- without annoying pauses. It achieves this performance by processing the
- IFF file headers and locating the sound data before starting to play.
- It also opens all the files before playing so that no time is wasted
- during playback.
