dmamix-d.zip for DJGPP?  I downloaded that.  When I first ran it, it
crackled like crazy.  But, I figured I was using the wrong IRQ and DMA.  My
sound blaster string is this:

SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1

When I tried IRQ 5 and DMA 1, all the .wav's ran nicely in a Windows
console.  When I tried under DOS, it couldn't find my sound card.

I compiled with gcc -Wall -pedantic which found a few errors.  Delete the
start and end lines and run through patch:

patch -p0 < dmagcc.dif
