Network Drivers
---------------

   These drivers send the generated sound over the network to a server
program, which sends the sound to the real sound hardware. The server
program can be on the same machine than your program, but MikMod does
not have access to the hardware. Network drivers only support software
mixing.

`drv_AF'
     This driver works with the "Digital AudioFile" library.
     Start the server on the machine you want, set its hostname in the
     `AUDIOFILE' environment variable, and MikMod is ready to send it
     sound.

`drv_esd'
     This driver works with the "Enlightened Sound Daemon".
     Start the esd daemon on the machine you want, set its hostname in
     the `ESPEAKER' environment variable, and MikMod is ready to send
     it sound.
