NAME
       PDL::Demos::Sound - play PDL-generated sounds


DESCRIPTION
       This module is intended to be auto-discovered by the mechanisms of PDL::Demos.  That module also defines
       our interface.

       The demo creates some simple sound waves (a scale and a chord) and pipes them to an external sound player
       program.  It knows how to invoke "aplay" (from alsa-utils), "play" and "sox" (the latter two from SoX -
       Sound eXchange).  All of these are available as packages in Linux distributions, SoX is also available
       from <https://sourceforge.net/projects/sox/> for Microsoft Windows and MacOS.

       If no suitable player is discovered, the demo does not die but shows an explanation where to obtain them.
