Possibly a silly question, but how do us Cygwin users make the transition
when building new voices? Ie, run the configure as normal, but obviously
won't be choosing lame any longer.
I can't wait to try out the new codec for voices, it should be very
interesting.
Also, the voicebox script currently works in windows. Will there need to
be a new voicebox script provided to take into account the new codec?
