Greetings, I'm not on my MacOS X box right now, and it's quite a long time that I looked at audio capabilities of MacOS, so I may be wrong or outdated. As far as I can remember, /dev/snd doesn't exists on MacOS, you should use CoreAudio instead. Practically speaking, you may try this: http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/PlayAudioFileLite/PlayAudioFileLite.html Hope this helps, Davide On 7/12/05, beaucham <beaucham(at)manfred.music.uiuc.edu> wrote: > Practically every Unix system I've used since about 1990 sports a play > command that simply plays back a file without the need for a special > GUI app -- including Linux.
