Re: Wav2mp3 (using serversocket for app to app control)

Re: Wav2mp3 (using serversocket for app to app control)

Re: Hello, I'm a new user , got a few progs :)

Thanks. Will get some of them "showcase" ready. The Wav2mp3 App will be a good showcase I think as i've just managed to get it to check if it's already running and issue commands to the existing process to handle instead of opening multiple times. Ie. Before when i selected 4 files on the ...
