SoX 12.17.6 Released

I'd like to announce the release of SoX 12.17.6. It is avaliable at http://sox.sf.net

Things that have changed since 12.17.5 include:

o Fixed the crash when processing WAV files.
o General cleanup of code (warnings from valgrind, c++ cleanup,
getting ready to allow reading from memory instead of just files, etc).
o Restructure directory layout for easier browsing.
o Modified sox to accept multiple input files. Result is concatenating
audio files together.
o Fixed hangup when reading mp3"s with large ID3v2 tags.
o Volume option (-v) now tracks file its specified with. This is
important for multiple input files. Specify with output filename
for an overall volume adjustment or with input filename for
fine tuning each file.
o soxmix increased from 2 input files to upto 32 input files.
Also, defaults to modifying audio volume of each file by
1/#_input_files which can be overridden with -v option on each
input file.
o Added a scripts directory with samples of working with sox.
For example, crossfade.sh will take two audio files and perform
a crossfade between end of 1st and beginning of 2nd file.
o Trim effect will do a seek() call when possible to greatly
speed up processing time.
o Added a new multi-band compander.
o Modified silence effect to allow removing silence from middle of file.
o Added support for float data in .au and .wav files.
o Modified sox to only work with normalized floats (-1:1).
o Various bugfixes related to clipping.
