[ANN] win32-sound 0.1.0

[Daniel Berger]

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce the release of win32-sound 0.1.0

What is it?
===========
A simple interface for playing sounds on the Win32 platform. It is
based largely on the Perl and Python Win32 sound modules.

Where is it?
============
On the RAA or the project page at
http://rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils/

Synopsis
========
require "win32/sound"
include Win32

wav = "c:\\windows\\media\\chimes.wav"

# Play 'chimes' sound once
Sound.play(wav)

# Play 'chimes' sound in a loop for 3 seconds"
Sound.play(wav,Sound::ASYNC|Sound::LOOP)
sleep 3
Sound.stop

# Beep for 2 seconds at 500 Hz
Sound.beep(500,2000)

Enjoy!

Sounds good, speaking of sound I know linux sound has always been a bit
mixed up with a bunch of competing libraries. I wonder how difficult it
would be to have a sound api for ruby that sat ontop of either platform
and whatever library was available. It might not be the most used
library but it would certainly be nice.

ruby/sdl works fine for this
