tab(-10, AG_PLAYSOUND); fspec, flags {,status}; chr(127); Tab(-10,x) Syntax Notes
AG_PLAYSOUND (105) forces the ATE client to play a sound file.
This function has both a subroutine and a print tab implementation.
Parameters
fspec and flags are the same as for the MX_PLAYSOUND. status may be set to non-zero if you want to get the return status in the keyboard buffer. Otherwise (if 0 or omitted), there is no response.
Note that fspec must be a PC native filespec, and that AG_PLAYSOUND supports the standard image file search path and %env% variables.
Response
None, unless status is "1", in which case the response will be the string representation of one of the following values followed by <CR>:
