Jouke, great to see the code! May your daughter and others
enjoy the use of it...
Little remark (at first glance): It would be nice if you
warn users at startup if they are on unix and not have the
'play' command available.
I've glanced at CPAN (yes, it's still your friend), and
I saw a few possibilities.
-Audio::Play plays sounds
on both unix and win32, but it cannot play WAVs, only
.au and .snd formats, which I don't know.
-Audio::Play::MPG123 plays mpegs cross-platform
(tested on win32 and linux).
There are many more modules to convert and change audio-files
in different formats. Search on Audio to find them.
Hope this helps, Jeroen

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
