many thanks, Christophe, for the C program I start with auditory fMRI experiments and your code might be an excellent starting point, especially with the possibility to wait for a TTL signal on the LPT.... fMRI-ready!! am I right in the assumption, that your code is (more or less) platform-independent, since you are using SDL? what IDE do you use for programming? did you already try the 2.6 kernel? cheers christoph On Mon, 2003-12-15 at 09:27, Christophe Pallier wrote: > Christoph Lehmann wrote: > > >Christophe, I was just playing around with your python code for sound > >presentation: > >one question: what does the > > > > > > > >> while time.get_ticks()-start > n*SOA: > >> time.delay(10) > >> > >> > > > >..I can comment it out, and nothing happens.
