SoundList

SoundList()

Returns an array of sounds registered by *RegSound.

return value

An array of frames. Each frame contains the following slots:

item A string naming the sound.

soundSymbol A unique symbol identifying the sound.

DISCUSSION

This function returns an alphabetized array of sounds suitable for use directly in a picker list. For example, you could use this array as the value of the labelCommands slot of a protoLabelPicker.

Use the function *GetRegisteredSound to return the sound frame for a registered sound, given its symbol.

Note

This global function exists in both the Newton 2.0 and 2.1 operating systems. It was not previously documented for 2.0.
