echo Oscilliscope for Sound Blaster
echo By Corey Roome
echo.
echo FIRST ISSUE OF BUSINESS:
echo ------------------------
echo THIS PROGRAM IS NOT CAPABLE OF PLAYING VOC FILES!!!!
echo It is meant for just viewing pleasure because of its unique displays.
echo.
echo I wrote this program for a physics project dealing with sound and I
echo intended for it to play the VOC files as the display was turned on.
echo Unfortunately, I don't really understand ASSEMBLY, and I couldn't
echo figure out how to program the Sound Blaster's DAC. So, if you downloaded
echo this program thinking it would be anything more, I appologize.
echo.
echo I AM willing to update it, however, if someone can give me some source
echo code (PASCAL, preferably) for programming the Sound Blaster... including
echo its digital channel (DAC). I included the source code written in Turbo
echo Pascal 6.0.
echo.
pause
cls
echo SECOND STUFF:
echo -------------
echo Okay, now, with that out of the way, I can go on.
echo.
echo The program is started by typing OSCIL.
echo.
echo You will be presented with a screen telling you some keys that I added
echo at the last minute such as MONO/STEREO and COLOR. You are then prompted
echo for a filename.
echo.
echo YOU MUST INCLUDE AN EXTENSION!!!!!
echo For example, type: COREY.VOC to display COREY.VOC
echo.
echo HINT: IT IS POSSIBLE TO DISPLAY EXE, PAS, BAT, COM, etc.... just make
echo sure the filename is LEGAL... and, once the oscilliscope flattens
echo out, press Q to quit, otherwise, the program will never exit.
echo.
echo PLEASE: DO NOT TRY TO TRICK THE PROGRAM BY GIVING IT A FAKE NAME.
echo This will cause the program to CRASH!!! (harmlessly, of course)
echo.
echo Other than that, enjoy the program, the menu is on the bottom of the
echo screen in RED letters... PLAY AROUND WITH EVERYTHING! By the way, to
echo unpause, press a speed key (1..9 and 0)... okay HAVE FUN!!!
pause
cls
echo FEEL FREE TO DISTRIBUTE THIS PROGRAM!!!!
echo ----------------------------------------
echo.
echo DISTRIBUTE THIS PROGRAM ANYWHERE YOU WISH, but please keep the contents
echo of the original ZIP file. SOURCE CODE IS INCLUDED!
echo.
echo If you can, or know someone who can help me program the Sound Blaster,
echo leave email to:
