Hello all,

   About four or five days ago I posted a message asking about libraries
and/or ASM/C source code which would allow me to include SB support in my
programs.  As is always the case, I got more e-mail saying, "Send me the
info too!" than actual suggestions...  :-)

   However, I did get a number of helpful tips, and I'll summarize the
packages as follows:

   Package                FTP Site              Directory
  ---------              ----------            -----------
- SBDOS20.ZOO       as.arizona.edu               pub/SBDOS20
- BLAST13.ZIP       garbo.uwasa.fi               pc/sb
- SBF.ZIP           wench.ece.jcu.edu.au         pub/sbf


   I don't have a ZOO decompressor, so I haven't had the opportunity to look
at SBDOS20 yet.
   BLAST13.ZIP worked just fine for me, and it's probably the one I'll use.
   SBF.ZIP didn't work for me, but I'm positive that it's the fault of
either my card or my system.  It obviously *does* work for the author and
others, and seems to be a very nice, complete package.
   Lastly, one person even suggested that I buy the Creative Labs SDK, since
it would be *impossible* for me to add SB support wthout it.  I thank him
for the advice, but unfortunately I can't afford shelling out CDN$100+ for
the simple project I'm working on.

   Some other packages/routines I've seen on local BBS's are CTV-MOD (has
modifications/enhancements to the original CTV-VOICE.DRV functions), SBDAC
(a simple subset of SBF.ZIP), and SOUNDHAX (which needs the library
SBCLIB).  You might want to check Archie or your local boards for these
programs as well.

   Thanks muchly to all who replied, and I hope this helps others who are in
the same position as I.


Cheers,
