GISO for NeXTSTEP 3.0

What's GISO? GISO provides an easy way to convert sounds to and from
different sound formats and also preview NeXT sounds. 

GISO is actually just a wrapper for sox. 

What's sox? Sox is a filter program with the ability to convert in and out of
many (all that I know of) sound formats. It will move in and out of .au, .aiff,
.voc, .hcom, .wav and any raw format you can describe with its parameters.  Its
interface is very complicated and so that is why I wrote GISO.

To build it just type "make install".

*** New in Version 3.0:

	- Compiles without errors under NS3.0

	- Responds to double click of self describing sound file formats.
		- i.e. responds to .snd, .au, .voc, .wav
		
*** New in Version 2.1:

	- Newest version of sox used. New sox handles .wav files cleanly and has
	some new filters (See man page).
	
	- Uses Subprocess Object now to run sox in (Subprocess was originally a
	NeXT example that has been touched up some).
	
	This means

		- No more spining disk during conversions.

		- Conversions can be aborted.

	- Small interface clean ups.
