Example

/** 
  * This sketch demonstrates how to use <code>setLoopPoints</code>
  * using an <code>AudioPlayer</code>. Left-click with the mouse
  * to set the start point of the loop and right-click to set the
  * end point of the loop. You will likely find
  * there to be a break during loops while the code seeks from the 
  * beginning of the file to the start of the loop. This seek time
  * can become quite noticable if you are using an mp3 file 
  * because it will need to decode as it seeks.
