<h3>
DESCRIPTION</h3>
<b>Snack_CreateFileFormat</b> is used to define a new kind of sound file
format. A number of procedures can be specified in a Snack_FileFormat structure
to handle sound data I/O, header parsing, etc. The file SphereFile.c serves
as good example of how these routines are intended to be used.
<p>The string <b>name</b> will be returned as the result of a successful
read command.
<p><b>guessFileTypeProc</b> is invoked by Snack in order to find out if
the current file is of a type which this handler recognizes. <b>guessFileTypeProc</b>
will receive <i>buffer</i> filled with bytes from the header up to <i>length</i>
and if it recognizes the format is should return <i>formatName.</i> If
it can't make a decision after seeing only <i>length</i> bytes it should
return the string QUE_STRING. It will subsequently be invoked again with
some more bytes for a new try. If the file is clearly in another format
<b>guessFileTypeProc</b>
should return NULL.
<p><b>extensionFileTypeProc</b> takes a filename string and returns <i>formatName</i>
if its file name extension matches its format else it return NULL.<i> </i>
This is used when saving a sound object using a <i>filename</i> to guess
which format it should be saved with. If no save functionality is needed
and <b>extensionFileTypeProc</b> is specified as NULL, a raw file will
be saved using <i>filename</i>, which could be confusing. By providing
an <b>extensionFileTypeProc</b> for the format Snack will be able to report
"unsupported save format".
<p><b>getHeaderProc</b> is invoked in order to decode a sound file header.
If the sound file resides on disk <b>ch</b> will be a a channel opened
for reading, otherwise it will be NULL. If the sound resides in memory
<b>obj</b>
will point to a binary Tcl variable containing the data of the sound file,
otherwise it will be NULL. The procedure should use these macros to specify
the properties of the sound file
<br>Snack_SetSampleRate()
<br>Snack_SetNumChannels()
<br>Snack_SetSampleEncoding()
<br>Snack_SetBytesPerSample()
<br>Snack_SetHeaderSize()
<br>Snack_SetLength()
<br>On success <b>getHeaderProc </b>should TCL_OK, otherwise it should
return TCL_ERROR and leave an error message in the Tcl result.
<p><b>putHeaderProc</b> is invoked in order to decode a sound file header.
If the sound file is to be written to disk, <b>ch</b> will point to a channel
opened for writing, otherwise it will be NULL. If the sound file is to
be written to a Tcl binary variable, <b>obj</b> will point to a Tcl Obj,
otherwise it will be NULL. The <b>length</b> argument will contain the
length of the sound data in sample frames.
<p><b>openProc,</b> <b>closeProc,</b> <b>readSamplesProc,</b> <b>writeSamplesProc,
</b>and
<b>seekProc</b> are modelled after their Tcl channel equivalents.
<b>readSamplesProc</b>
should read data either from <b>ch</b> or <b>inBuffer</b> which ever is
not equal to NULL. The <b>length</b> argument is given in samples (not
frames) and the return value is the number of samples read (or -1 if an
error occurred). <b>seekProc</b> should seek in the sound file to the sample
frame given by the <b>position</b> argument.
<p><b>freeHeaderProc</b> is called when a new file is read into a sound
object or when it is destroyed. It is used to deallocate ant memory which
might have been allocated earlier in, e.g., <b>openProc</b>.
