Begin3 Title: Improved version of wavplay021.tar.z Version: 0.21w1 Entered-date: Sun May 12 19:39:39 1996 Description: An improved version of wavplay021.tar.z play and record commands: here renamed as wavplay and wavrec respectively. Error checking and messages tightened up, but the significant changes here include semaphore locking to prevent multiple wavplay processes from playing at the same time. This makes wavplay useful in /etc/rc.d startup shell scripts (and shutdown). Xplay(1) was dropped from this release. No sample.wav included. The locking facilities can be used for non sound related uses as well. Keywords: play record /dev/dsp locking semaphores Author: bx249@freenet.toronto.on.ca (Warren W.
