   8 On Posix environment, you will also need GNU gettext (for iconv.m4) and
   9 GNU autoconf/automake.

  11 How to build on Posix environment
  12 ---------------------------------
  13 First, you need to build libfdk-aac and install on your system.
  14 Once you have done it, the following will do the task.
  15 (MinGW build can be done the same way, and doesn't require gettext/iconv)
  16
  17 $ autoreconf -i
  18 $ ./configure && make && make install

  20 How to build on MSVC
  21 --------------------
  22 First you have to extract libfdk-aac source here, so that directory tree will
  23 look like the following:
  24 +- fdk-aac ---+-documentation
  25 |             +-libAACdec
  26 |             +-libAACenc
  27 |             :
  28 +- m4
  29 +- missings
  30 +- MSVC
  31 +- src

  35 Tagging Options
  36 ---------------
  37 Generic tagging options like --tag, --tag-from-file, --long-tag allows you
  38 to set arbitrary tags.
  39 Available tags and their fcc (four char code) for --tag and --tag-from-file
  40 can be found at http://code.google.com/p/mp4v2/wiki/iTunesMetadata

  42 For tags such as Artist where first char of fcc is copyright sign,
  43 you can skip first char and just say like --tag="ART:Foo Bar" or
  44 --tag-from-file=lyr:/path/to/your/lyrics.txt
