NAME
     esdsample - play a sample

SYNOPSIS
     esdsample [-s hostname:port] [-b] [-d] [-e]  [-h]  [-m]  [-r
     freq] samplename

DESCRIPTION
     The esdsample utility plays a  sample  using  the  Enlighted
     Sound Daemon (esd).

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -s hostname:portContact the esd server on hostname at port.



     -b              Specify that the output should be  in  8-bit
                     format.  By default, the output is in 16-bit
                     format.



     -d              Play the sample from file as raw  data.  The
                     default  behavior is to read the data from a
                     sound file (.wav, .au, and so on).  If  this
                     option  is chosen, samplename is the name of
                     a file.



     -e              Play the sample from the esd cache. If  this
                     option is chosen, samplename  is the name of
                     the sample in the cache.



     -h              Display help text, and exit.



     -m              Specify that the output should  be  in  mono
                     format.  By default, the output is in stereo
                     format.



     -r freq         Specify that the output rate should  be  set
                     to  freq. By default, the output rate is set
                     to 44.1 kHz.
