[App_rpt-users] Play two audio files back to back

[Steve Mahler]

Or, if you are using WAV files ... catwav them (which uses sox) and play 
the result ...

/bin/rm -f  $WXT/$TEMPMSG       #Make filename available for output
/usr/local/bin/catwav $WXT/$TAILMSG  $WXA/${P1}${P2}${P3} $WXT/$TEMPMSG
/bin/rm -f  $WXT/$TAILMSG       #Make filename available for output
/usr/local/bin/catwav $WXT/$TEMPMSG  $WXA/spc.wav $WXT/$TAILMSG

You would do the asterisk -rx " rpt localplay NODE cattedfile" here (I 
use it to build tailmessages with multiple announcements).
