Canned laughter box 1.0

Canned laughter box is a small, free application that consists of one button that when clicks, plays a laughter sound.

The idea is that you can install this program and anytime somebody tells a joke, press the button. In comedies they use canned laughter to make jokes seem funnier. Why not in real life.

Apart from the practical (or not so practical) side of the program, the source illustrates two programming techniques, embedding sounds in an exe and the use of hot keys.

Sounds are embedded by creating a simple .rc script and compiling that using the Borland Resource Compiler, i.e. if sounds.rc contains:

SOUND1 SOUND "Laugh.wav"

If you press Ctrl-F11, the sound is played.
