- PLAY v1.00 ■ Copyright 1993 by John Giesbrecht (1:247/128)
-
- Play is simple utility which plays Maximus TUNES.BBS-style tunes from the
- command line. The syntax is simply
-
- PLAY <filename>
-
- Blank lines in the input file are ignored. Lines beginning with an
- asterisk or a semicolon are treated as comments, and are echoed to the
- screen. The tune ends when a blank line, a comment line, or the end of
- the file is encountered.
-
- As each note is played, PLAY displays:
-
- - its ordinal number within the tune
- - the line number of the input file where the note is specified (useful for
- debugging)
- - it frequency in Hz
- - it duration in milliseconds.
-
- Pressing any key while a tune is playing will stop it. When PLAY finishes,
- it displays the elapsed time.
-
- PLAY is, of course, absolutely free. (Do you think I'd have the gall to
- charge for this? :*) Comments and suggestions are always welcome; please
- send them to me at 1:247/128.
