The AFsp Audio File I/O Package
-------------------------------

To provide support for a variety of audio file formats, the VM
software uses the AFsp package for all audio file i/o. The AFsp
package is written by Peter Kabal <kabal@TSP.EE.McGill.CA> and is
available via ftp:

current version:	AFsp-V2R2.tar.Z
original site:		ftp://ftp.TSP.EE.McGill.CA/pub/AFsp
mirror site:		ftp://ftp.tnt.uni-hannover.de/pub/audio/AFsp

To make the libtsp library required by the VM software, unpack
AFsp-V2R2.tar.Z, goto AFsp-V2R2/libtsp and start make. Finally the
following three files have to be copied to the vm directory tree:

vm/include/libtsp.h
vm/include/libtsp/AFpar.h
vm/<platform>/lib/libtsp.a

Audio File I/O routines

The AFsp package is a library of routines for reading and writing audio files.
The emphasis is on providing support for the type of audio file used by the
speech processing research community.  The routines have been designed to be
easy to use, yet provide transparent support the reading of several audio file
formats.  A secondary purpose for distributing these routines is to encourage
the use of a standard audio file format for the header information in the
output files.

...

The AFsp routines form part of a signal processing library.  The full library
is available for anonymous ftp as libtsp-VxRx.tar.Z.

The AFsp routines are covered by copyright, see the file "Copying" for details
of the distribution conditions.
