Since Lame is an open source development project you could always
download source code... The same goes for ogg I think.

IIRC Ogg has been ported to the OS I use. I suspect that Lame has as well,
but am far from sure. Afraid I've never ported anything to my main OS so
don't know if I would find this easy/convenient.



Lame may well be available for the OS I mostly use. FWIW I also use
Solaris and even (rarely) Windows at times. But in the context of this
thread what I said later in the previous postings seems appropriate to
me. Hence I haven't bothered to try and get a version of Lame working
as yet.

Wel, who knows? All of a sudden you might change your mind :-)

Erm... About what? :-) The reason I have not done so (as yet) is that
what 'DAB' suggested wrt to my using 'Lame' does not (yet) seem relevant to
answering the question(s) I was putting to him. And don't have any real
interest in storing/using audio in data-reduced formats or on my computers.
However if either of these factors altered, I might then become more
interesting in experimenting with 'Lame'.

Slainte,

Jim
