%%   The executable sounder will no be looked for in the
%%   same directory as from where sounder.jam is loaded.
%%
%%
%% start()      -  Returns either: ok ,or: silent ,where silent means
%%                 that no audio capabilities exists but the sounder
%%                 will work "silently" in order to not break any code.
%%
%% stop()       - Returns: ok
%%
%% new(File)    - Tries to load the File. At success, a number refering
%%                to the File is returned that shall be used with send/1.
%%                Otherwise {error,Reason} is returned.
%%
%% play(No)     - Tries to execute the sound registered with the number No
%%                Returns: ok , or: {error,Reason}
%%
%% silent()     - Returns: true ,if no audio capabilities exists, else: false
%%
%% Note: It is also possible to receive: {error,sounder_not_started}
