Grip is a front-end to external cd audio rippers (such as dagrab
or cdda2wav). It also provides an automated frontend for MP3 encoders,
letting you take a disc and transform it easily straight into MP3s.
The CDDB protocol is supported for retrieving track information
from disc database servers. Grip works with DigitalDJ to provide a
unified computerized version of your music collection.

Brief Changelog:
- After asking you for the needed information, nap now creates the
.napconf file automatically. No sample distfile anymore.
- Added some keybindings for the main window.
- Fixed Ctrl-C so that it can break a nested loop; Ctrl-L so it really
redraws the whole screen from scratch.

- Pressing 'u' on an item at the search result list shows the nickname
of the user who's offering the item.

xhippo interfaces to a wide gamut of programs, including video-only
stuff such as xanim. There's no reason I should have to install mpg123
on a machine without a soundcard to use xhippo to browse through videos.
The nap isn't really maintained by the real author anymore. Instead,
there is another project which aims to continue the original author's
idea. The new version is A LOT more stable, with various new fixes and
improvements.
The homepage is http://theory.stanford.edu/~selinger/nap/
Quick changelog with the main things:
- fixed a security bug (string format attack)
( http://www.shmoo.com/mail/bugtraq/sep00/msg00942.shtml )
- added --user, --pass, --email, --upload, --download, --dataport,
--connection, --maxusers options to override settings in config file.
- look for config and library files in user's home directory, rather
than current directory. Also, renamed these files more discreetly as
.napconf and .nap_shared.
- fixed several memory leaks and null pointer bugs.

flac is a free lossless audio codec. It does not compete with
MP3/OggVorbis, which are lossy compression schemes. Instead, flac
can be considered an equivalent to gzip/bzip2, optimized for audio
recordings (wav files).
