--- What the heck is this? What's this useful for? ---

This program analyzes a song in WAV, Ogg Vorbis or MP3 format
and produces an output consisting of the volume differential,
the relative strength in each frequency band, and the tempo.

This is useful if you want to build something that lets you find out
whether you have duplicate files, or if you need to find out the tempo
of your songs, or if you need to find similar songs according to how
they sound.

--- How does it work? ---

Believe me, I still do not know this, but it works!

--- What do I need to use this program? ---

A variety of things.  You need to have:

- a package called gsl - the GNU Scientific Library
- For MP3: the mpg321 program
- For Ogg Vorbis: the ogg321 program and its vorbis libraries

Of those, all are available on the Internet, as source packages
and as precompiled RPM packages.
