Introduction
============
Sound Scheme Manager is a program to manage the Sound Schemes found in OS/2
Warp 4.0.This program can perform the following functions.
1. Create new Sound Schemes
2. Edit existing Sound Schemes
3. Test play sound files for use in Sound Schemes
4. Delete Sound Schemes
This program was written by David J. van Enckevort and is released as Freeware
under the following conditions:
1. The copyright on this program remains the property of the author, David J.
van Enckevort.
2. This program is distributed 'as is'. No warranty of any kind is expressed
or implied. You may use it at your own risk. The author will not be liable
for data loss, loss of profits or any other kind of loss caused by the use
of, or inability to use this program.
3. You are granted a license to use this program, you do not own this program
and any right that is not explicitly granted to you in these conditions is
reserved to the author.
4. You may not reverse compile this program or alter it in any way.
5. You may distribute this program freely, as long as you don't ask money for

6. You may not distribute this program as part of a set of programs, or in any
other way combined with other programs without prior permission of the
author.
7. By using this program you accept these conditions.
Installation
============
Installation of this program is very easy, just copy the three files to a
directory and make a program object for SSM.EXE on your desktop. NO editing of
the CONFIG.SYS is necessary. As long as you keep the three files together the
program will find the necessary files. If you really want you can move the file
HELP.HLP to a directory in the SET HELP= statement in your CONFIG.SYS. If you
want to be able to access the help file without starting the program you can do
so by creating a program object with viewhelp.exe as program, help.hlp as
parameter and the path of the help.hlp file as working directory.
How to use the program
======================
This program is, I hope, very easy in it use. It consists of one main window
and gives when necessary popup windows. Important to know is that you have to
select a Sound Scheme before start editing actions.
All pushbuttons, entryfields and lists have a helpline at the bottom of the
window and context sensitive help that can be accessed by pressing F1. If you
have questions about how to use this program I would like to refer to the
online, context sensitive help.
Bugs & Limitations
==================
This is the initial release of this program. This program was written in on
day, and released the next day. The core function, however where copied from
another REXX program that I wrote before, and are well tested. The program is
not tested with other versions of OS/2 Warp 4.0 than the International English
version. It might, or might not work with other versions. At the moment I am
aware of the following bugs and limitations.
1. No checking is done on the files, it is possible to select files that aren't
WAVAudio files.
2. There is no possibility to select no sound for an action.
3. You can't type the filename in the sound entryfield.
4. When you change from an edited, but not saved Sound Scheme to another scheme
the Sound Scheme list will not be updated.
5. You can delete all Sound Schemes.
6. You can save a new Sound Scheme without a sound assigned to each action.
7. When you create a new Sound Scheme, to each action ERROR: will be assigned.
8. When selecting a sound after your first selection the file dialog doesn't
open in the previously selected directory.
