DESCRIPTION:
CyPLAY is a command-line player for MID, VOC, CMF, and WAV sound files. It
was created for David Schultz of DBS Music, in appreciation for the fine
music he wrote for one of my games. I used Borland C++ 3.1 and Worx version
2.01 to write the software. Since it is freeware, there hasn't been a great
deal of testing, so if you find a bug, feel free to let me know at one of
the email addresses below.
===========================================================================
USAGE:
To run CyPLAY, simply type in the program name at the command prompt in the
following format. [Example: C:>cyplay generate.mid gm1.ibk ]
CYPLAY [?] filename.ext [bankfile.ibk] [pc] [l]
Items in [] are optional.
[?] View the usage help screen.
filename.ext Any valid VOC, CMF, MID, or WAV file. You MUST use the
proper file extension.
[bankfile.ibk] Any ibk file. If you do not specify an IBK file, CyPLAY
will use the default. Applies only to MID files.
[pc] Use internal speaker for VOC file playback. This does not
work on some internal speakers.
[l] Loop a MID or CMF file continuously.
WARNING: Be aware that due to some limitations of the sound library, sound
files MUST be 23kHz or less, and smaller than 64K in size. Failure to follow
this guideline may result in your computer locking up.
