-OSS <--> ALSA PCM plugin
-========================
-
-This plugin converts the ALSA API over OSS API. With this plugin,
-ALSA native apps can run on OSS drivers.
-
-This plugin provides the PCM type "oss". The typical configuration
-looks like below:
-
- pcm.oss {
- type oss
- device /dev/dsp
- }
-
-Put the above to ~/.asoundrc (or /etc/asound.conf), and use "oss" PCM
-with your ALSA apps. For example,
-
- % aplay -Doss foo.wav
-
-For playing arbitrary formats, you should use "plug" layer together,
-
- % aplay -Dplug:oss foo.wav
-
-The oss plugin can have an option: device. This specifies the device
-file path of OSS to open. If not given, /dev/dsp is used.
-
-The function supported by this plugin is limited. For example, you
-cannot use dmix together with this plugin. Don't expect too much :)
-
-The plugin is installed in /usr/lib/alsa-lib directory as default,
-which is the default search path of additional plugins for alsa-lib.
-On a 64bit system like x86-64, the proper prefix option (typically,
---prefix=/usr/lib64) must be given to configure script.
