Re: sound & big text for Win 3.1
Hello Dan,
I think you can write a program for dos, that it's easier that
it work on that computer. Using a various sort of "IF"'s and the
routines at sfx2.e I think that you can write it. I can help you
if you want, I can't do it now, but in 2 days I'll be able to
help you. Use the function IsPlaying() in sfx2.e to make sound
play one after another.
That's all for now.
