There was another thread asking if any binary information, such as that found in an exe file, could be 'converted' to sound. Actually, if I remember correctly, the questioner was hoping to use it as a method of concealment, or compression, or something, convert it back, and reuse it as an executable. My statement was that there was no need to convert the file, just wrap it in some sound-format definition and Bob's your aunt. There were some pros and cons expressed, so I just dood it. Rather than accept some user-specified file, I decided to back up my explorer.exe and hard-code it as the target file. There you have it. Simple as popping a pimple.
