Tim Peters e79af273e8 Flesh out PlaySound() docs enough so that SND_ALIAS isn't hopelessly confusing.
If someone knows how to turn the new table of guaranteed-registered system
sounds into a LaTeX table, be my guest.

Thomas Heller 5f52f7230c Checked in with Andrew's blessing, I leave the comments with which
this was posted to distutils-sig in.

Here is what I've hacked together over some spare time
at the weekend. I would appreciate feedback, as I've told
before I'm neither a great author, nor native english speaker,
nor anything else.

Mostly I've completed (and written) docs for bdist_wininst
(where I'm an experert for), also I've started some stuff
for the data_files and scripts option.

Should I continue in this way? Would others like to jump in?
