The libraries libogg, libvorbis, and libao are all available at http://www.vorbis.com/download.psp The libcurl library is packaged with most Linux distributions. The source code can also be downloaded from: http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ CONTACT: The Ogg Vorbis homepage is located at 'http://www.vorbis.com'. Up to date technical documents, contact information, source code and pre-built utilities may be found there.
