[edit] Definition

INT load_song ( <STRING filename> )

Loads a song for later use with play_song().

There are multiple filetypes you can load using this function. Included are:

• OGG Vorbis (.ogg). Good quality for songs and doesn't take too much space (it's similar to *.mp3).
• MIDI (.mid). Takes very low space, but it's limited to samples of the soundcard.
• Modules (.xm, .it, .s3m, .mod). Like MIDI, but Modules also contain the samples themselves.

[edit] Parameters

STRING filename

- The music file to be loaded, including a possible path.

[edit] Returns

INT : SongID

-1	- Could not load music file (errormessage in console).
>=0	- The SongID.

[edit] Example

Program example;
Private
    int song;
Begin
    song = load_song("my_song.ogg");
    play_song(song,0);
    Repeat
        frame;
    Until(key(_ESC))
OnExit
    unload_song(song);
End

Used in example: play_song(), key(), unload_song()
