NAME

       auplay - play a sound file to a Network Audio System server

SYNOPSIS

       auplay [-audio servername] [-volume 0-100] [-i] [-I] [-l] files...

DESCRIPTION

       The  auplay program can be used to play audio data stored in the .SND, .AU, or .WAV formats common on Sun
       workstations and PCs.  It is typically used from  shell  scripts  or  command  line  procedures.   If  no
       filenames  are  given  on  the  command line, audio data will be read fron stdin, unless the -l option is
       given.

OPTIONS

       The following options may be used with the auplay program:

       -audio servername
               This option specifies the Network Audio System server on which the files should be played.

       -volume 0-100
               This option specifies the volume at which the data should  be  played  as  a  percentage  of  the
               maximum possible volume.  The default is 100 percent.

       -i      This  option  indicates  that  the  header  information  associated with the sound data should be
               printed along with playing the data.

       -I      This option indicates that the header information  associated  with  the  sound  data  should  be
               printed instead of playing the data.

       -l      This  option indicates that a list of filenames is to be read from stdin.  auplay will play these
               files after playing any files given explicitly as command line arguments.
