It's maybe a bit too open-ended. I don't know audio or any stuff like that, but
I have potentially a *lot* of time to find that stuff out, so you tell me: what
should I look at?

ogg123 endian is probably flat-out wrong for anything but x86. It's also
horridly non-portable (though libao helps a lot for that). A couple quick
questions then:

1. How do I tell vorbisfile ( / libvorbis ) that I want the data in host byte
order?

2. I assume that at least a majority of sound output mechanisms like data in
host byte order. Correct?

3. Is libao byte-order safe?

Third I'll figure out by myself unless I get any explicit evidence either way.

You didn't try to put your name in as a .sig, did you? huh? right...
