Just for the record, it is an ABX tool that I'm refactoring so that you
can compare two songs (one original and one compressed) and choose (from
a randomly chosen one) which is the original track. You might be
surprised at how LAME works well with even very low bitrates.

The program wasn't working with big-endian arches, but I fixed that
yesterday. :-)

Nice. Thank you.

Obviously. :-) I'm waiting to get rid of MacOS X from this iBook. I
still want it to be with me for quite some time.


Thank you very much, Rogério.

P.S.: If you want me to test anything else, like a git tree or
something, please, don't hesitate to ask. I want the driver to work for
me (of course) and to have it work better for all the people with ra
wireless chips.
