major update.  the entire application has been re-written from scratch.
the new layout allows languages and codecs to be added much easier than
prior releases.

- removed pacpl-install
- removed daemon mode (this may be re-implemented in a future release)
- removed --playlist option

  format I apologize, but the programs inability to specify an output 
  file just wouldn't work with the new system.

+ added ability to alter/add meta-data during conversion via tagging opts
+ added configure and makefile for installation (replaces pacpl-install)
+ added --to option. this replaced --ct and the --formattoformat options
+ added --only option. with this option, only files matching .ext will
  get converted. (eg: pacpl --to wav --only flac /home/directory/) only
  converts files ending in .flac to wav
+ added --dryrun option.  this was inspired/suggested by Stefano Sabatini
+ added --verbose option. useful in conjunction with --dryrun
+ added language po-like files. translators (as always) are welcome.
+ added the following video types to the video->audio conversions:
  svcd, m4v, nsv, nuv, psp, and smk.

* update all files are now converted to wav first, then to the desired
  output format.  in the future this will allow normalization, gain, etc.
* update slackware package now uses the new kde installation directory /usr
* update a large portion of the amarok script has been re-written.

  as regular expressions.  thanks to Donald Byrd for the report.

% fixed bug when copying ogg tags.  only copy tags starting with the tag
  string (artist, title, etc)...as opposed to any tag containing the string.  
  thanks to Edward Kear for reporting this issue.
