Yes. You can anon ftp a shar file containing the source to such a program (credit to Jonathan Bowen (Programming Research Group, Oxford University, UK)) from dept.cs.yale.edu (IP addr 128.36.0.36) as pub/SparcSounds/sound.shar The program when compiled will produce the older (SunOS 4.0.3) format sound files but you can still play them. You can also load them into soundtool which will convert them to the new 4.1.1 format (it adds the appropriate header info to the sound file). There are a few Sun format sound files in the Twin_Peaks subdirectory of the above subdirectory. - Morrow -- _ _ __ _ __ (/_ / (/ \/ \ _ __ __ ____ _ __ (/ _ __ _) / / . / )_(_)_/ (_/ (_(_) (_(_( /___(_)_/ )_(_) ( ( ( _) -- comp.archives file verification dept.cs.yale.edu total 15 drwxrwxrwx 2 ftp 512 Feb 19 23:55 Twin_Peaks -rw-rw-rw- 1 ftp 13795 Oct 9 1990 sound.shar found sparcsounds ok dept.cs.yale.edu:/pub/SparcSounds/
