RESOUND is a silly little utility that, once loaded, plays a
digitized sound file each time you exit an application. Any
standard SPL or SND file can be used. The name of the chosen
sound file and its appropriate sampling rate are passed to
RESOUND in an ASCII file called RESOUND.INF. This file
consists of:
a digit from 0 to 5 representing the sampling rate (see below);
a single space;
and the complete name of the sound file.
For example:
3 WHATSUP.SPL
or:
2 WISEGUY.SND
The sampling rates are designated as follows:
0 - 4.9 kHz
1 - 7.68 kHz
2 - 9.6 kHz
3 - 14.99 kHz
4 - 19.8 kHz
5 - 30.7 kHz
To install RESOUND from the desktop, double click on
RESOUND.PRG. The sound file, RESOUND.PRG and RESOUND.INF
must be in the same directory when the program is run.
To install RESOUND from an auto folder, place only the
RESOUND.PRG file in the auto folder, and place RESOUND.INF
and the sound file in the boot directory.
The program and the sound file stay resident in memory until
you reboot (keep this in mind if you run out of memory when
attempting to run another application). RESOUND does not
check to see if it has been previously installed, so if you
install it twice without rebooting, it will just gobble up
more RAM.
There must be some practical use for this. Damned if I can
think of one.
