Re: [SoX-users] Sox 14.0.1 compiles!

Thanks for the tips!! I downloaded version 14.0.1 and (in/for Cygwin)
configured, made, and ... success! I left the house for hours this
time so not sure how long it

  $ ./configure --enable-oss-dsp --disable-dependency-tracking
--with-sndfile --with-samplerate --disable-shared --with-ladspa

... ==>

sox -h
