[vorbis-dev] Vorbize Multiple Files

[Mark Shander]

Hi Stan,

Here's a suggestion...add a -menu switch that displays a short text
message screen w/status display that offers menu options.  Have the user
select the ones they want.  Yes/no questions are toggles on the menu,
and questions such as "Title" are variable fields.  When the user has
selected all of the options they like, they type OGG! at the prompt to
start.

Another suggestion is to allow wildcards.  Then, rather than a long
command line specifying specific Shander radio shows to encode, I could
encode using:

[programname] shander*.wav shander*.newext

This would be helpful because I typically copy stuff to encode into its
own directory.  

Regards,

Mark Shander
