This program plays a sound file such as is produced by
MacRecorder or used by Sound Master. I have included some
documentation at the beginning. It is really very basic, but
it does the job.
My question is how would this be converted to use the Sound
Manager? I have looked at the new-improved doc for it and I
still can't figure it out. If anyone has a simple change to the
last few lines to make change it to use the Sound Manager,
please post. (I got a number of requests to post my results...)

/* PlaySound
This is a mind-numbingly simple program to play a sound file
selected by SF file. Sound files of this type are used by Sound
Master and are produced by MacRecorder.
The format of a sound file is very simple. It just contains
the sound data as it would be used by the free form synthesizer in
the sound manager. The sound buffer for the FF synth looks like:
int mode; The synth to use (free form = 1)
Fixed count; The sampling speed (always 22k in this program)
char waveBytes[]; The wave data
The program just reads in the wave data and sticks in the appropriate
beginning data. This program is based on Ron Butcher's article
"Sounding off in MS QuickBasic" found in May '89 MacTutor (a superlative
tech journal for the Macintosh).
The only other point of interest is that Sound Files have type FSSD.
