                                                 $num .= (ceil((ord($d)-64)/3) + $x);

get_audio_stream_buffer

get_audio_stream_buffer(3alleg4)				  Allegro manual				  get_audio_stream_buffer(3alleg4)

NAME

       get_audio_stream_buffer - Tells you if you need to fill the audiostream or not. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       void *get_audio_stream_buffer(AUDIOSTREAM *stream);

DESCRIPTION

       You  must  call this function at regular intervals while an audio stream is playing, to provide the next buffer of sample data (the smaller
       the stream buffer size, the more often it must be called). This function should not be called from a timer handler. Example:

	  void *mem_chunk;
	  ...
	  while (TRUE) {
	     ...
	     mem_chunk = get_audio_stream_buffer(buffer);
	     if (mem_chunk != NULL) {
		/* Refill the stream buffer. */
	     }
	  }

RETURN VALUE

       If it returns NULL, the stream is still playing the previous lot of data, so you don't need to do anything. If it returns a value, that	is
       the location of the next buffer to be played, and you should load the appropriate number of samples (however many you specified when creat-
       ing the stream) to  that  address,  for	example  using	an  fread()  from  a  disk  file.   After  filling  the  buffer  with  data,  call
       free_audio_stream_buffer() to indicate that the new data is now valid.
