play_sample

play_sample(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual					      play_sample(3alleg4)

NAME

       play_sample - Plays a sample. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int play_sample(const SAMPLE *spl, int vol, int pan, int freq, int loop);

DESCRIPTION

       Triggers  a  sample  at	the  specified volume, pan position, and frequency.  The parameters `vol' and `pan' range from 0 (min/left) to 255
       (max/right).  Frequency is relative rather than absolute: 1000 represents the frequency that the sample was  recorded  at,  2000  is  twice
       this,  etc. If `loop' is not zero, the sample will repeat until you call stop_sample(), and can be manipulated while it is playing by call-
       ing adjust_sample(). Example:

	  /* Scream from the left speaker, twice the freq. */
	  int sound = play_sample(scream, 255, 0, 2000, 0);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the voice number that was allocated for the sample or negative if no voices were available.
