[SoX-users] Misleading(?) DLL advice in the README.win32 file

[Jeremy N. - ml s. u. <jn....@wi...>]

I downloaded the .zip version of sox, and noticed that it contained 
multiple DLL files.
The README.win32 file said right at the start that:

    "The binary SOX.EXE can be installed anywhere you desire.  The only
     restriction is that the included ZLIB1..DLL and LIBGOMP-1.DLL must 
be
     located in the same directory as SOX.EXE or somewhere within your 
PATH."


I assumed that that was wrong and copied all the supplied DLLs to the 
directory in which
I placed the sox executable (and the play/rec/soxi copies).

If copying all the DLLs was not required, why were they supplied?
