-<P>
-By using the open SNDFILE with a file descriptor function:
-</P>
-<!-- pepper -->
-<PRE>
- SNDFILE* sf_open_fd (int fd, int mode, SF_INFO *sfinfo, int close_desc) ;
-</PRE>
-<!-- pepper -->
-<P>
-it is possible to open sound files embedded within larger files.
-There are however a couple of caveats:
-<P>
-<!-- pepper -->
-<UL>
- <LI> Read/Write mode (SFM_RDWR) is not supported.
- <LI> Writing of embedded files is only supported at the end of the file.
- <LI> Reading of embedded files is only supported at file offsets greater
- than zero.
- <LI> Not all file formats are supported (currently only WAV, AIFF and AU).
-</UL>
-<!-- pepper -->
-<P>
-The test program <B>multi_file_test.c</B> in the <B>tests/</B> directory of the
-source code tarball shows how this functionality is used to read and write
-embedded files.
