Can anyone help an octave newbie with this?  I would like to be able to
play (through /dev/audio or other machine-dependent device) files
of signals I create, import or modify in the octave environment.
In other words I would like to be able to do something like:

octave:6> play(x);

where x is an acoustic signal, and have it go out the audio device.
Ideally, I would like to be able to mess around with files in Sun's .au
format and then play them.

Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions.  Please reply directly to
me at the address below, as I do not (yet) subscribe to the octave
discussion group.  [Will there be a usenet group any time soon?]
