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.
