Usage

sfront [options]

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the sfront command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a general manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the HTML format; see below.

sfront is a program that compiles MPEG 4 Structured Audio (MP4-SA) bitstreams into efficient C programs that generate audio when executed. It supports real-time, low-latency audio input/output and MIDI input from soundcards.

You must compile the C file generated after sfront execution with a C compiler, and execute the resulting program to get the audio output.
