No joy, but thanks for replying/. I will make a "fetchaudio"
program my last project for FBSD. I'm wearing out, but the
one thing I want to contribute before I hang up my spurs--er,
keyboard--is a non-GUI port that, after the user inputs, will
go out and get webcasts in mp3, and store somewhere. so the '
