. If you can not play it, you need to install a player:
audio/basic; showaudio %swhere showaudio is one of many AU audio players.
For Sun systems, you can also use
xplay.
For Solaris users, this tip comes from Nigel Badnell:
When using xplay with Solaris, users will need a little more detail in their mailcap file:
audio/x-wav; xplay -; stream-buffer-size=8000 %s
To set up the AU player, enter the following into the HelperApplication or
ExternalViewer dialog box in your Web Browser:
| MIME type / subtype | audio/basic |
|---|---|
| extensions | au |
| application | wplany |
where wplany or wham are some of the many AU sound players.
You may quickly get a copy of wplny12a.zip or wham133.zip for Windows.
Note that these copies may not be as recent as the previous references however.
Note that you may need to supply the complete path to the application.
Also, some browsers need a '.' preceeding the extensions entry.
