Perhaps that is why there are still so many blatant bugs in sox
after all of these years?

I have only started looking and I am sure I can find many
many more.

It is entirely up to you. I feed information into your brain
and if your brain is incapable or unwilling to digest any of it
then that is entirely your problem.

Please bear in mind that sox currently contains hundred of
related and unrelated lines of code. And that doesn't stop
sox from working does it? Unrelatedness has never been
an obstacle in the past has it?

Anyhow would you care to introduce yourself and explain how
it is that you have apparently become the sole arbiter of what
is good or bad for sox.

Incidentally, I can very easily patch sox entirely for my own
benefit and there is no compulsion for me to publish such
private changes on any public forum. I only do that out of
the goodness of my heart. The patches merely serve as a convenient
way of explaining the bugs in more detail. Once a person such as
your kind self has availed him- or her-self of the wisdom of my discoveries
then your good person is freely available to work very hard at finding
some good reason to cast aspersions upon my discoveries. But I would
submit that the easier path would be to take my discoveries on board
and make good use of what has cost me in time and effort, at no
cost to yourself.
