# $Id: Portfile 34544 2008-02-28 02:15:18Z ram macports.org $

PortSystem 1.0

Name: flac
Version: 1.2.1
Category: audio
Platform: darwin
Maintainers: nomaintainer
Description: Free Lossless Audio Codec

Long Description: FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. Grossly oversimplified,FLAC is similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio iscompressed in FLAC without throwing away any information. This issimilar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much better compression because it is designed specifically for audio, and you canplay back compressed FLAC files in your favorite player (or your car or home stereo) just like you would an MP3 file.
