Hi folks, I've been working on and off for the last little while on a command line recording utility. It's really basic and the code is pretty ugly. It exists partly because in my lazy search I couldn't find anything that satisfied my particular need, and also because it was interesting. I just made a first release, so you could try it if you like. The program is called hrec, it's basically a curses front end to a very limited subset of ecasound's functions. Code is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hrec/ AUR package is here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/hrec/ I'm planning to do change it soon, but the basics will remain the same. Mostly I plan to remove the playback functionality, as it's almost useless -- plenty of other software to do it much better. Also I need to migrate the code to Python 3, but I'm getting stuck on the python ecasound bindings. In the couple of (admittedly not very thorough) attemps I've made I ran into problems with the current pyeca module. Any advice would be appreciated. Anyway I thought I might as well release it now and get some feedback. I hope someone finds hrec useful! Criticism and insults are also welcome. Thanks!
