um, where is sox? is there any lind of user guide, list of switches/methods for oggenc for CLI-challenged? I gave it a try last night and it refused my source - was that cos it's mono?

I have re-recorded the audio as stereo for CD and am going to give oggenc another

...version of Microsoft's market-leading operating system for workstations. One commercial vendor of Linux, closely held Red Hat Software Inc., expects to sell 400,000 copies of the software at $50 each this year. The operating system generally referred to as Linux got its start in 1983. Richard Stallman, then a programmer at the artificial-intelligence lab at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, set out to create a free alternative to Unix, the operating system developed at AT&T Corp.'s Bell Labs. Mr. Stallman dubbed his operating system GNU, which stands for Gnu's Not Unix. (The re...
