[ale] Whimsy: NoobieQ on ringtone files

[johnmills at speakeasy.net (John Mills)]

ALErs -

I have a trailing-edge Nokia 6030 phone that won't play MP3 tones, but is 
claimed to play "polyphonic" ringtones (maybe MIDI?). How can I convert an 
MP3 snippet to something it can load and play as a ringtone or sound file?

TIA.
