	WinBeep.Exe is an incredibly simple-minded program for
expirimenting with a Voice Master under Window 3.0.

To Use:  Run the program.  It will load as a blank icon. Click on the
icon.  A menu will appear.  While the menu is showing, click the ICON
(not the menu) with the RIGHT mouse button.  

 It'll play a 3-bit "Bleep", and 3-bit "chime", then an 8-bit "bleep"
(taken from the files Bleep.v3s, Chime.v3s, and Bleep.vmf
respectively)

(The middle button will close the window)

	The rates are all set to "0" to use the default.
	The port is set to "4" for my Voice master II.

  If you have the Windows system development kit, you can edit the
winbeep.rc file to substitute different sound files for the three
provided here (which were choosen mainly to keep the .ZIP file
small).
 Change the third column of the line:
	BIT3A	SOUND	bleep.V3S
	BIT3B	SOUND	chime.v3S
	BIT8	SOUND	bleep.vmf

to the name of the file you want played.  Then run the Resource
Compiler (RC) on it. (This takes only a few seconds)

 From my expriementing, I've gotten some bizzare results. A V3S file of 
Micheal Keaton saying "Thank God it's Friday"  refuses to play back any 
faster than about half speed, regardless of what I set the rate parameter 
of the say3s() function to.  The file of a Bogie quote just made a lot
of sputtering noises, but I can gt it to work fine.
