	That will certainly be worth doing; however, I'm a babe in 
the woods about Nav Services. :-(

	I suggest going to OpenPlay. It will be cross-platform and it 
will save a lot of development trouble.

	What's happening??? Does Carbon support anything like the 
MacOS Sound Manager? I thought that the Sound Manager was a part of 
QuickTime. At least according to the QT documentation it is.

	A way to get local events, like pause and quit commands, into 
the MacOS event queue. Feel free to replace with some Carbon 
equivalent.
