NAME

       al_identify_sample_f - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>

              char const *al_identify_sample_f(ALLEGRO_FILE *fp)

DESCRIPTION

       Tries  to  guess  the  audio  file  type of the open ALLEGRO_FILE by reading the first few
       bytes.   By   default   Allegro   cannot   recognize   any   file   types,   but   calling
       al_init_acodec_addon(3alleg5)  will  add detection of the types it can read.  You can also
       use al_register_sample_identifier(3alleg5) to add identification for custom file types.

       Returns a pointer to a static string with a file extension for  the  type,  including  the
       leading  dot.   For  example  “.wav”  or “.ogg”.  Returns NULL if the audio type cannot be
       determined.
