hmm, looking at this again, it seems the paramter you would pass is a
pointer to the fli itself, not a structure containing play parameters ?
when you call play, you sure give a fli to play, no ? or you mean it
should play the last played fli ? it could have been deallocated since
then. maybe it would be better to require a valid parameter, which the
fli playing routines already do, looking at the docs.
or did a miss your point ?
