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'.

The other beauty of RISC OS is that no-one can be bothered to write worms
or viruses for it - and even if they did, having a ROM based OS makes it
impossible to corrupt in a terminal way.
