---------------
Support for ALSA 0.9 is functional and could do with widespread testing.
To build with alsa support, simply configure with:
./configure --enable-alsa
Note that this will build a binary which will work with ALSA only, and
not attempt to use OSS. In future this will be replaced with plugins
for different pcm i/o methods, which should ease binary distribution.

ALSA native support it currently not working; to even attempt to build the
code, you must configure with:
./configure --enable-experimental --enable-alsa
However, Sweep works fine with ALSA under OSS emulation.
Sat Oct 7 2000
---------------
Support for ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) version 0.6.0 was
added by Paul Barton-Davis <pbd@op.net>.
To build sweep with support for ALSA 0.6.0, do:
./configure --enable-alsa
make
Paul writes:
To use ALSA, you need --enable-alsa as an arg to configure,
because just discovering ALSA is not deemed to be sufficient to use
it (at this time).
A couple of things to note:
* this is ALSA 0.6.0, which is only available via CVS right now
* this code is totally different than the code needed for 0.5.X
* you also need a ~/.asoundrc file to define the
characteristics of various "named PCM devices"
* you can define the environment variable SWEEP_ALSA_PCM to
the name of the PCM device you want sweep to use
* if its not defined, sweep will try to open a named PCM
device called "sweep"
