Any way to get a wav file to play on a pc speaker? No sound cards allowed at work! Thanks, Don Scott

I'm not sure if this will conflict with tick_rate() in Euphoria. The sound quality will not be very good; effectively 1-bit mono. Having a high playback rate would also degrade system performance. But some sound is better than no sound at all. So I ask the question: should I add pc speaker support to ModWave? -- _____ _____ _____ ________ /\ \ /\ \ /\ \ / \ \ / \____\ / \____\ / \____\ / _ \____\ / / ___/_ / /____/ / / ___/_ / / \ |___| / / /\____\ / \ \ / / /\____\ \ \_/ / / \ \/ / ___/_\ \ \ \ \/ / ___/_ \ /____/ \ / /\ \\/\ \ \ \ / /\ \ \ \ \ \ \/ \____\ \ \ \ \ \/ \____\ \ \ \ \ / / \ \____\ \ / / \ \____\ \ / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \ / / \/____/ \ / / \/____/ \/____/xseal at harborside.com\/____/ http://www.harborside.com/home/x/xseal/euphoria/

There is a PC speaker audio driver for windows to play wav files. It's locks up the interupts so no keyboard or mouse actions can occur while playing audio. I sent a copy straight to Don.
