Merry Christmas to all!
A week ago someone put forth the BARTMASK for the xbiff icon that looks great. Has
anyone gone the extra mile and come up with the sound file so you can really hear "MAIL, MAN!"
on a sparcstation? Please let me know. I don't want to reinvent any wheels if I can help it.
I would assume that cat'ing the file into /dev/audio would give the desired effect.

Get the audio-xbiff and make your default mail sound the "mail man" sound; but that's a limited use of the audio-xbiff. It matched regular expresions in the header, I've got a *ton* of sounds defined (over 100...) in my .Xdefaults! I got the audio xbiff from expo.lcs.mit.edu, it is probbly on other X archive sites. -- stripes@eng.umd.edu "Security for Unix is like Josh_Osborne@Real_World,The Multitasking for MS-DOS" "The dyslexic porgramer" - Kevin Lockwood "Don't over-comment" - p151 The Elements of Programming Style 2nd Edition Kernighan and Plauger
