If you have the sox package and trplayer/Realplayer8 installed on your system, you might be interested in a small utility called "looper" that provides random selects from a sound file list to play continuously as you carry on your work. You run looper with two parameters: one specifies what kinds of files you want to process - mp3, ram, or wav (ram = ra or rm). The second specifies what directory to examine to find the files. Check it out at: http://www.mhonline.net/~chuckh/looper.tgz Comments and suggestions welcome; cash, checks, or postal money orders not accepted. No credit cards please!
