The idea of asound arose some years ago and perhaps Preben Randhol did something on his own, I don't know... Currently, asound isn't a generic audio library at all, but it could be one ;) The original intention was to write a binding to Ogg/Vorbis and Preben proposed to start with libao. I haven't thought about it for years, but last week I decided to implement it. Actually asound is only a binding to libao, and not even a complete one. It can play samples and this is more than I need, because I don't need it ;) Perhaps someone is interested in extending it. I do not think that I'll have the time for great improvements within the next N*six months, so whoever wants to go on coding, please do it ;) You can download it here: http://adi.thur.de/?show=asound -- mail: adi@thur.de http://adi.thur.de PGP: v2-key via keyserver Praktisch denken, S�rge schenken
