 MH> Hey,
 MH> I have only recently started learning C .. I wanna know how to

Create a window glass, allocate space for the speaker on top of it. 
Assign the speaker to it, now increment the x,y position of the speaker..
Voila, sound.            
You can attempt to overload the glass to get a different pitch, but be 
careful this sort of thing is known to lead to crashed stacks.

 MH> me how to load and display GIF's or whatever ?? Or any cool stuff ..
free(z);

 MH> Thanx in advance ..
No probs.

Just kidding, but that other post of yours with the dots, deserves worse 
treatment than the above. I don't know or care what went on between who
ever, but neither the language nor the message was appropriate here.
Ahhnyway..

Displaying GIFs is not all that easy, as well as playing WAVs.I found the 
best thing is to look around for a library, where someone crazy enough has 
done the work for you. Ruck*.arj or zip will handle most common sound 
formats and SB compatible sound cards, GUS too i think.
I can't think of a Gif display routine, but look in C programming areas
on your BBS.

As far as sound on the speaker, that's fairly easy, but will get a bit 
more complicated if you're trying to play music.I'm also unaware of any
portable way of doing this.
If you're lucky enough to have borlandc or turboc this will work. 

A very crude piano, you'll need the ascii chart handy to play music :-)

#include   /* for getch() and kbhit() */
#include     /* for sound() and nosound() */

int main()
{
 int freq,key = 0;
                                                   
 printf("\nPress ESC to end.");
 
 while(key != 27)  /* loop until esc was pressed */
 {
  key = getch();   /* get a key from console */
  if(key && key != 27)          /* if the key is not 0 and not ESC */
  {
   freq = key*3;                /* set a good audible frequency */
   while(!kbhit()) sound(freq); /* play until another key is hit */
   nosound();                   /* switch off this sound */
   }                            
 }                              /* do it again */

 return 0;
 }

Hope this gets you going.

 MH> Thanx in advance ..
Again, no probs :-)
