I'm afraid I don't understand any of that. I removed Executive from my
Amigas as it seemed to be causing trouble.
But what language are we in here?
What you want to do is keep Play16 running (accessing the audio.device)
while Scala goes on to its next event. If you start P16 from inside
Scala, it cuts out as soon as Scala moves on to the next event.
I tried an external ARexx script which ran Play16 and then Scala, but
again they seem to conflict. Also the Scala "script" command did nothing
- it should load and play a script. Picture foo, Show, Picture foo2,
Show, etc works.
I haven't tested with a sound card as I expect the original enquirer
doesn't have one.
