PlayWave.exe + Timed ScreenSaver
« on: February 13, 2006, 09:22 AM »
Just saw this:

PlayWave.exe by Jim Chevalier - jimbug.org
Version 2.0 - Now plays long wave files.
Description: Plays a wave file directly.
Syntax: PlayWave.exe sound.wav
Platform: Windows 95?, 98 and up.

Might come in handy to add sound to batch files/AHK scripts!



TimedSS.exe - by Jim Chevalier - jimbug.org
Description: Runs a program or a screensaver for a set number of seconds.
Optional - low or idle priority.
Run from a batch file or a shortcut.

Syntax: TimedSS.exe seconds [low] a_screensaver.scr
Example: TimedSS.exe 60 low "C:\WINDOWS\system32\ssstars.scr /s"
Note: Use quotation marks around the program's path.
Platform: Windows 98 and up.

Could be helpful for scripting too... thinking about how I could use this already :)

Come on... You should already know that Ahk has it all  :tellme: :tellme:
It can play sounds, check SoundPlay function.

Hi,

See? AHK has SO many options to offer, I didn't even SEE them all yet! ;D

Another taste, but no need to have a specific layer here : just pure plain script that natively handles any DLL call...
#Option Explicit

Const SND_NODEFAULT = &H2
FBSL_GetFileName( "Open WAV", "WAV Files(*.wav)|*.wav", 0 )

If FBSL_GetFileName <> "" Then
  $apptype console
  Color( 2, 14 )
  ? ".........WAVE FORM FILE PLAYER................................"
  Apicall( "sndPlaySound", "winmm", FBSL_GetFileName, SND_NODEFAULT )
  ? ".............................................................."
End If

You can try it into my Fbsl Online Compiler to see the result :)
Yours,
