AmigaOS 3.1 Command Reference

SOUND


Format:
SOUND [FROM <filename>] [EDIT] [USE] [SAVE]
[PUBSCREEN <public screen name>]

Template:
FROM, EDIT/S, USE/S, SAVE/S, PUBSCREEN/K

Purpose:
To control type of sound and sound attributes
produced by Amiga.

Path:
Extras:Prefs/Sound

Specification:


The Sound editor allows you to determine the type of sound and its
attributes that you want your Amiga to produce when the system issues an
application prompt or error notification.

SOUND without any arguments or with the EDIT argument opens the Sound
editor. The FROM argument lets you specify a file to open. This must be a
file that was previously saved with the Save As menu item of the Sound
editor.

For example, if you have saved a special configuration of the Sound editor
to a file in the Presets drawer, you can use the FROM argument to open that
file. If the USE switch is also given, the editor will not be opened, but
the settings in the FROM file will be used. If the SAVE switch is given, the
editor will not open, but the settings in the FROM file will be saved.
