# ADDING A NEW SOUND SERVER/CLIENT/WHATEVERIDK
# `volume a` and `volume s` are the system dependent functions.

# `volume a $2` must set the volume to $2, an integer value. This should be a
# percentage, 100% being the loudest possible volume that can be output by
# hardware without quality loss. Percentages above 100% will be allowable in
# software if using percentage units. If percentage units are implausible to
# implement, system units are okay (e.g. 0-$arbitrary scale versus 0-100).

# `volume s` must output the current volume in integer form in whatever units
# are being used by `volume a` on the given system.
