[T] This is similar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much [T] better compression because it is designed specifically for audio, [T] [T] FLAC consists of: [T] - `libFLAC', a library which implements reference encoders and [T] decoders, and a metadata interface [T] - `libFLAC++', a C++ object wrapper library around libFLAC [T] - `libOggFLAC' and `libOggFLAC++', which provide encoders and [T] decoders for FLAC streams in an Ogg container [T] - `flac', a command-line program for encoding and decoding files [T] - `metaflac', a command-line program for editing FLAC metadata [T] - player plugins for XMMS and Winamp [T] - user and API documentation [U] http://flac.sourceforge.net [A] Josh Coalson [M] The OpenSDE Community [C] extra/multimedia [L] LGPL [S] Stable [V] 1.2.0 [P] X -----5---9 126.400 [D] 1619064118 flac-1.2.0.tar.gz http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/flac/
