Going back through old messages I saw Mark's comment
about meeting resistance to FLAC because of lack of
a GUI. Yes, there is the FLAC frontend mentioned on
the home page, but maybe that is not enough.
Well, since there's no way I'm ever going to write a
windows GUI, I thought, why not trick another one
into using FLAC? So my first effort is the Monkey's
Audio GUI which people seem to like. I just checked
in the source for a little utility that can be copied
in to the MA install area that can pretend to be one
of the other lossless encoders, but actually call flac.
It works pretty well so I think it will be in the
next release also. Mark, if you're curious you can
check out the latest documentation in CVS about it:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/~checkout~/flac/flac/doc/documentation.html?rev=1.42&content-type=text/html
Maybe that will sway your friends!
