In my search for a decent, open-source sound editor, I
have stumbled across lamp.
Is it the answer to my need?
Who knows? It won't build.
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/home/rkr/tmp/lamp && make &&
make install
[...]
audioIO.c:21:23: audiofile.h: No such file or directory
[...]
$ find . | grep audiofile
$
...so, there is a file missing from your distribution.
I am guessing that it is in your CVS tree, though I
have not looked yet.
