<h2>INTRODUCTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>TwoLAME is an optimized MPEG Audio Layer 2 (MP2) encoder.
It is based heavily on:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>
tooLAME by Michael Cheng
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
the ISO dist10 code
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
improvement to algorithms as part of the LAME project (lame.sf.net)
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
other contributors (see AUTHORS)
</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>TwoLAME should be able to be used as a drop-in replacement for
LAME (a MPEG Layer 3 encoder). The frontend takes very similar
command line options to LAME, and the backend library has a very
similar API to LAME.</p>
<p>For the latest version of TwoLAME, visit the project homepage:

<h2>MPEG Audio Layer 2 (MP2)</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>(taken from Wikipedia article on MP2)</p>
<p>MP2 (sometimes incorrectly named Musicam) is a short form of MPEG Audio Layer II,
and it is also used as a file extension for files containing audio data of this
type. While it has largely been superseded by MP3 for PC and Internet applications,
it remains a dominant standard for audio broadcasting as part of the DAB digital
radio and DVB digital television standards. It is also used internally within the
radio industry, for example in NPR's PRSS Content Depot programming distribution
system.</p>

<h2>INSTALLATION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<p>Standard automake process:</p>
