Subject: Re: [ecasound] Porting ecasound to FreeBSD 4.2 (take 2)

Before anything, please note that I have now successfully compiled
ecasound-1.8.5d15 and installed its libraries on FreeBSD 4.2.
Yay!
I will send patches here ASAP (that would probably be tomorrow night or
friday, EST, that is).
Quite a few things were fixed, but I *still* cannot compile
ecawave-0.3.3 out of the box. I *can* however link programs properly
with -lecasound, by putting a -L/usr/local/lib/ line on the
command-line. However, autoconf doesn't seem to get that so I can't use
it.
I'll send a proper mail describing this later on.
For now, read on...

And that's the whole problem. There *is* a help available from
interactive mode, but it's misleading, because it lists available
commands, *without listing them all*. At first sight in interactive
mode, one might think ecasound quite limited. :)

Yay!

Let me now expressed a big "ah-ah! I knew it!". :) It really seemed to
be something wrong there. :)
