Summary: Missing Snd functions

Initial Comment:
A few minor omissions in the Carbon.Snd module as of 
2.2b2:

SndPlay and SndStartFilePlay are exposed only as methods 
of sound channel objects.  However, these are usefully 
called with a NULL sound channel, in which case a 
channel is internally allocated for the duration of the 
call (and the 'async' parameter is ignored).

SndRecord is completely missing (as is SndRecordToFile, 
but that isn't supported in Carbon) - yes, there is 
SPBRecord, but that's a lower-level routine that doesn't 
present a user interface for recording.  If I'm 
understanding the bgen process correctly, this is 
because of a parameter of type ModalFilterUPP, which is 
blacklisted.  However, SndRecord would be useful even if 
this parameter wasn't supported (required to be None, 
perhaps): the Sound Manager documentation gives no hint 
as to why you'd even want to use a filterproc, and the 
sample code I can find always passes NULL.

SndRecord (and SndRecordToFile in classic MacPython) are now supported in the CVS tree.

Exposing SndPlay and SndStartFilePlay as methods isn't all that useful, it's easy enough to call SndChannel(...).SndPlay(...), I think (and it's a lot of work:-)

I'm closing the bug report, feel free to reopen it if you think the SndPlay issue merits it.
