.SH NAME
toolame \- MPEG-1 layer 2 audio encoder
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B toolame
.RI [ options ] " <infile> " [outfile.mp2]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B toolame
is a very fast (6x realtime on a 550mhz celeron) MPEG-1 layer 2
audio encoder with a command-line syntax nearly identical to that of the
.B lame
MPEG-1 layer 3 audio encoder. Because of patent issues surrounding the
layer 3 encoder, the ability of most mpeg audio players to play layer 2
files, and the similarity in command-line syntax,
.B toolame
makes a very good
drop-in replacement for
.B lame
and other layer 3 encoders under most
circumstances.
