+Audacity is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds.  
+With Audacity one can record live audio, convert tapes and records into 
+digital recordings, edit Ogg, MP3, and WAV sound files, and much more.
+ 
+Audacity requires wxGTK2.6 and libsndfile, both of which are available on 
+SlackBuilds.org.   This script builds with support for libmad, libvorbis, 
+id3tag, and libflac (all of which are included in stock Slackware), but 
+they can be removed in the "configure" section of the build script if desired.
