Has anyone written a soundblaster library to handle the annoying DMA /
interrupt etc, that doesn't also play mods, mix 6 channels, or come
with it's own 3D engine?
I just want, like 4 routines. Install, getsample into a buffer,
playsample, and uninstall. That's all. Does noone write libraries that
don't come including their bloody lifestory? The whole DMA / memory
locking thing is particularly tricky. Allegro took up 40MB of space on
my hard disk. Argh! No wonder people aren't being as prodigious with
their output as they might be.
Martynas Kunigelis' MKKBD is an excellent example of what's right. It
just reads the bloody keyboard, it takes 5 minutes to understand, it
has no parameters, perfect.
