Making Sounds Go Right Away

[bucky002]

how would i make a sound go right away like if i pushed L a song would play? I know how to make the script, but how do i make the sound play right away without it having to open Itunes, windows media player, etc..? Like it would play in the background right away without much delay and wihtout opening any programs.

Thanks

Tips:

SoundPlay

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Play a sound file.

SoundPlay ( "filename" [, wait])

Parameters

filename Name of the file to be played (typically a WAV or MP3)

wait [optional] This flag determines if the script should wait for the sound to finish before continuing:

1 = wait until sound has finished

0 = continue script while sound is playing (default)

Return Value

None. (Always returns 1 regardless of success.)

Remarks

Terminating the script will stop the sound (if it is still playing).

Thanks I think I get it. I can't do anything yet because I have to wait for SciTe to download on dialup( on a , laptop) since this computer isn't my computer that I usually use I can't go to my other scripts to help me out some cause I sorta forget how to do some stuff. Once I get it done I'll post it up to see how much I missed.

Thanks again

What do I put in the wait and function places? This is all I have so far.

HotKeySet( "s" [, "function"] )
SoundPlay( "dc.wav" [, wait] )

What all do I need to do?

Thank you

HotKeySet("s","playit")
While 1
sleep(1000)
WEnd
func playit()
SoundPlay("dc.wav")
endfunc

While 1
sleep(1000)
WEnd
func playit()
SoundPlay("dc.wav")
endfunc

That worked.

Thank you.

How do I get a file to play out of a folder rather than my desktop? Say my folder name was "sounds" and I have my sounds in there, how do I play them from that folder? Last question, how can I hide the program from the bottom rights of my taskbar?

Thanks. I tried searching for this stuff, but didn't find anything maybe I'm just using the wrong keywords.

#NoTrayIcon
HotKeySet("{ESC}","die")
HotKeySet("s","playit")
While 1
sleep(1000)
WEnd
func playit()
SoundPlay("c:\sounds\dc.wav")
endfunc
func die()
exit
endfunc

Press ESC to quit it.
