Other Drivers
-------------

   These drivers are of little interest, but are handy sometimes.

`drv_stdout'
     This driver outputs the sound data to the program's standard
     output. To avoid inconvenience, the data will not be output if the
     standard output is a terminal, thus you have to pipe it through
     another command or to redirect it to a file.  Using this driver
     and redirecting to a file is equivalent to using the `drv_raw'
     disk writer.
     This driver only supports software mixing.

`drv_pipe'
     This driver pipes the sound data to a command (which must be given
     in the driver commandline, via `MikMod_Init').
     This driver only supports software mixing.

`drv_nos'
     This driver doesn't produce sound at all, and will work on any
     machine.
     Since it does not have to produce sound, it supports both hardware
     and software mixing, with as many hardware voices as you like.
