There is a PD program called PLAY590 which reads the samples back Actually that isn't a great idea. Because when you save an IFF file there is a header are which if played back, will sound a bit wierd. When you join them together directly there are several headers that are getting inserted into the file. I'm not sure that player programs will be smart enough to deal with that. -- Ethan Q: How many Comp Sci majors does it take to change a lightbulb A: None. It's a hardware problem.
