My index is uncomplete (Feb 1990). There is sample code and documentation that should answer all of your questions. The documentation can be found at Apple's ftp site at apple.com, in the folder dts/mac/docs/soundmgr.hqx. The sample code _should_ be up there, but it isn't. If you'd like a copy, send a harassing note to Mark Johnson at mjohnson@apple.com. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keith Rollin --- Apple Computer, Inc. --- Developer Technical Support INTERNET: keith@apple.com UUCP: {decwrl, hoptoad, nsc, sun, amdahl}!apple!keith "Argue for your Apple, and sure enough, it's yours" - Keith Rollin, Contusions
