NO SOUND
Release: 1.01 Date: 7 December 1992
Copyright (C) 1991, 1992 David T. Chappell

The programs included are shareware. Feel free to make copies and pass

are not modified in any way, and this notice is not changed or removed.
INTRODUCTION
============
Lots of programs for PCs use the internal speaker to play sound.
Occasionally, one of these programs will have an error and will
quit execution while leaving an annoying tone playing on the
speaker. These programs will stop any current sounds by resetting
all speaker-related chips to their power-on values. The NoSound
programs will NOT prevent other programs from starting new sounds.
INCLUDED FILES
==============
NOSOUND.EXE Version 1.10 for DOS
Turns off internal speaker under DOS;
also works under DOS box of OS/2.
NOSOUND2.EXE Version 1.00 for OS/2 (16-bit)
Turns off internal speaker under OS/2;
runs in either window or full-screen session.
Works with 1.x and 2.x versions of OS/2.
USAGE
=====
To run each program, type the filename (omitting the extension) at the
command prompt. There are no command-line switches.
CONCLUSION
==========
I have also written a general-purpose digitized sound player that
runs on all PCs. If you are interested in a complete package of
sound programs, write for more information. Various programs are
available on Internet via anonymous ftp at garfield.catt.ncsu.edu.
If you find any case where these programs do not work correctly,
please tell me. Supply all details of the situation, and I shall
try to fix the problem.
If you use these sound programs and find them interesting, a donation
in any amount ($5 suggested) will be greatly appreciated. If you
send a donation, I shall send you the latest copy of the software
(specify disk size). Please make checks in U.S. dollars payable
to David T. Chappell.
Ray Duncan's book _Advanced_OS/2_Programming_ helped a lot with
OS/2 development.
