Why not just create a symlink for play, rec, and soxi, and a symlink for the play.1 and rec.1 manpages, always? In the worst case, we create a needless symlink. (And than the user plugs a soundcard in and runs play, which is no longer needless, as opposed to recompiling). The alternative is this mess we have now. _______________________________________________ Sox-users mailing list Sox-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-users
