- Playmaster runs from CLI or Workbench. It will attempt to
- load up to 36 sounds if passed on the commandline.
- "PlayMaster sound1 sound2 sound3 etc".
- You may build an icon for PlayMaster and put a soundfilename
- on each tooltype line. Either just the full:path/name of your
- sound file, or "X=Full:path/name" where X is a number or letter.
- Either list may contain one or more entries nameing ascii files with
- one IFF sound filename on each line. Again use the full:path/name.
- Once started, filename will appear next to buttons.
- Push the appropriate key or click the gadget to play the sound.
- Click the gadget while holding right-amiga key to open file
- requester for loading new sound to that button. If a given button
- has been loaded before, file req will open to that directory.
- If not, file req will open to the last directory it used.
- On the FIRST open to an unloaded button, filreq opens to current
- dir of Playmaster.
- Playmaster only DEMANDS chip mem to play a sound. When loading
- sounds, it requests MEMF_PUBLIC which will return fast ram
- if it's available. Sound is moved to chip ram for playing.
- You may now specify the smallest and or largest size sound to
- be loaded into memory. Anything smaller than "smallest" or
- larger than "largest" is read directly from disk. Not bad if
- disk is a hard drive. Sounds longer than 25K or so can be interupted
- by floppy drive read speed. (Or lack thereof).
- Sounds not loaded into memory, but located by PlayMaster will be
- listed in RED next to thier gadet.
- -l# as any perameter fron CLI or any ToolType from Workbench
- sets "largest". Largest defaults to 150000.
- -s# sets smallest. Smallest defaults to 0.
