While researching a little bit about audio on Linux (after reading about the 
"portable beep
problem") et.al. I stumbled over an interesting cross-platform library named 
"libao" which seems to
have arrived a stable state.

Here various links for gaining a quick overview:

  * Homepage & overview: <https://www.xiph.org/ao/>
  * Documentation: <https://xiph.org/ao/doc/>
  * API overview: <https://xiph.org/ao/doc/overview.html>

  * Linux-from-scratch (how to install):
    <http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/8.0/multimedia/libao.html>
  * Infos about Ubuntu: <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libao>

At first sight it seems that the API is small and straight-forward.

So the idea: how about creating an external Rexx function library for libao and 
compile it for the
major operating system platforms Windows, MacOS and Linux? If possible with a 
CMakeLists.txt, such
that such a library also can serve as a role model for a) how to create 
external function library
and b) how to use CMake to make it simple to compile, link and create 
installers for the different
platforms?

Anyone who would find such an external Rexx function library useful/interesting 
and would try to
create it?
