[ANN] Play Sound 1.0.5 released


  • Subject: [ANN] Play Sound 1.0.5 released

I have just released version 1.0.5 of my scriptable application, Play Sound.

Play Sound is a freeware scriptable faceless background application that
allows AppleScript writers to play Mac OS System sounds ("snd " resources),
System sound files (files with a file type of "sfil" that contain "snd "
resources), and QuickTime sound files (for example, AIFF or MP3 files).

Download: <http://microcosmsoftware.com/playsound/>

Enjoy!

PS: Here is the change history, for anyone interested:

1.0.5 - New functionality

* Added a "looping" parameter and matching "stop" parameter. You can now
instruct Play Sound to loop sounds indefinitely until you issue the "stop"
command.
* Added the "resource index", "resource ID", and "resource name" parameters.
* Rewrote QuickTime sound play functions - QuickTime sound play is now less
CPU intensive in Mac OS X.

1.0.4 - New feature

* Play Sound now uses QuickTime to play AIFF sound files. As a side effect,
you can now play any sound file that QuickTime recognizes.

1.0.3 - New feature

* Play Sound now adds the calling application to the resource search path.
This means that you can embed 'snd ' resources in your AppleScript
application and use Play Sound to play the sounds.

1.0.2 - Changes in error handling

* Changed the error handling. Removed code that returns a reply for errors.
All errors are now returned using the default AppleEvent error handling
mechanism. This means that a script editor will show an error dialog unless
you wrap the play sound command in a try block.

1.0.1 - Bug fixes

* Fixed a bug that caused Play Sound to return the error message "A fatal
error occurred: 0" when there was no error.

* Added typeFSS and typeObjectSpecifier to supported types. You can now
enclose the play sound file path in parenthesis without generating an error.

1.0 - Initial Release
