FLAC is a general purpose audio format supported by many programs, but in this section we are concentrating on just the official tools provided by the FLAC project:
- flac - The command-line encoder and decoder.
- metaflac - The command-line metadata editor.
- plugins - Setting up the Winamp and XMMS plugins.
