Sound demo app introducing the Spinner widget

Of course, with all this talk of sound effects, we need some actual sound files. You can make your own with Bfxr (explained next) or use the ones supplied. The sound effects for this app are in the download bundle in the assets folder of the Chapter 23/Sound Demo folder. But you might like to make your own.
