kudos to: "Phil Shapiro" <phils@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu>
who provided a (ahem) sound example which worked.  the example also
reinforced the notion, RTFM, which i did but apparently not closely
enough (i overlooked the short argument to MySoundProc, which isn't
used in the example).  this works (assuming your 'snd ' resource is
preloaded and locked and has id 128, etc.):

pascal void MySoundProc(short sndNum)
{
    Handle mySound;
    OSErr err;
 
    mySound = GetResource('snd ', 128);
    err = SndPlay(0L, mySound, FALSE);
}

setup as in:
----------------
main()
{
    ...
    Init();
    ErrorSound(MySoundProc);
    ...
    Alert(...);
    ...
}
