Esound comes with a program esddsp that can, in some cases, make these programs use esound instead of /dev/dsp. It doesn't always work though. Also, if you can convince the program to produce output on stdout, you can pipe it to esdcat (with sox in between if necessary) > Esound basically acts as a mixer - taking input from the user programs, > mixing it together and feeding it to /dev/dsp. In the ALSA docs it mentions a feature like this as well. However, it would only work for progs written to use alsa, and it hasn't actually been implimented yet AFAIK. - -- finger for PGP public key. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBOAQVHL7M/9WKZLW5AQHnOwQAnN24o3+gcf8Q0cBgPvkYzWR+qJ8/uCTo r8LtqMrkYw+D4gaj7Ycp+H9qNfbs5F5ChZEsYFUFhs0PX8Of2aSFt9Q7gakiOtsw JTeR7ULsopFVEaXbfxTApEJjaAYCxeMwr/YrmOAZw9V8bop1waBU5Vk4HMncuSIG M6lGHbYAZrc= =LCyZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
