Subject: [9fans] mp3 encoding on Plan 9

i wanted to rip a few CDs, so i ported over
bladeenc, a popular linux mp3 encoder, to plan 9.
i've tested it (only on 386) by encoding a few
tracks off a CD and burning them (and others
gotten elsewhere) to a CD and played it under a
few other players on other computers. everything
seems proper. info is at:
	http://9.cosym.net/mpeg
as noted, i tried a few other options before i
came to bladeenc. if anyone else randomly wants
to poke at my failures, i'm particularly curious
what's wrong with LAME, but don't have time to
figure it out right now (nor the stomach; it's
GNU-inspired code, like the stupid name).

on a related note, is "setpriority()" in
ANSI/POSIX and APE just doesn't have it, or are
people just mistakenly assuming it's in the spec?
sorry, i don't have a copy handy...
