[lug] Re: lame?

I think what they meant was that they wanted a script that would
automatically convert wav files to mp3s using lame. Lame only does
one song at a time, so a script would be the easiest way to do it.
I'm not the sharpest when it comes to scripting, but I believe one
would just need a foreach loop.
