Short: MPEG 1/2 audio encoding/decoding (PPC), incl. source
Type: mus/misc
Uploader: Andreas_Kleinert@t-online.de
Author: (various, see README files)
MPEG/audio Layer 1 and Layer 2 encoding/decoding reference package.
Some of the source files do state, that this "MPEG/audio coding/decoding
software" is "NOT for public distribution until verified and approved by the
MPEG/audio committee" but "release.txt" is newer than these (1/Sep/93) and
does state, that "Managers of public access FTP sites are encouraged to make
this software available on their sites". So we did.
PPC binaries are called "musicin.elf" and "musicout.elf" and useable
from Shell when being used with ppc.library V46+
Please see the various README files on how to utilize the programs for
conversion of IFF-AIFF and so on.
No changes for the PPC port other than of adding smakefile/SCOPTIONS
plus this .readme file.

Note:
In the past, some guy called "SPH" took most of my free PPC ports
(those where the sources have been included) and ported them to WOS.
While I've nothing against WOS ports, an other point is very distasteful
and unfair in my opinion: removing all references to my name and initials
and simply replacing those with his own, while also removing all references
to PPC-Lib/ELF and replacing those with WOS references and usually some flames
or even offenses against the competing kernel and porter - without actually
rewriting the readme text itself in a major way (for example, if I describe what
*I* specifically did for the port - and what he didn't have to do a *second* time,
of course - he does not even remove/change *those* notes and/or give me credit).
This leads to the strange situation, that I hereby have to copyright this
.readme text, to claim its authorship and forbid changes which aren't
clearly marked as being changes to the original: While quotes may have
been derived from other parts of the distribution, the whole .readme as
such now is (C)opyrighted by Andreas R. Kleinert in 1998.
Copyrights to the other files remain as such. Nevertheless I'd ask anyone
to give me credit for the changes which I did myself and which of
course have been labeled/marked/documented as such. Even free software
lives from respecting the intellectual work and property of others. Thank you.
