   EXAMPLE

       ior->io_Command = CD_PLAYTRACK;    /* Play audio tracks     */
       ior->io_Offset  = STARTTRACK;      /* Start with this track */
       ior->io_Length  = 3;               /* Play three tracks     */
       DoIO(ior);

   NOTES

       PLAY commands are asynchronous with many other CD commands.
       Using a separate I/O request, other commands can be sent to the device
       that can change the behavior of the PLAY command.
