You want Audacity. I've personally never been able to get it to work on my *nix machines, but it does exactly what you want. I have been using it on Wintendo boxen for years with just such a functionality. -- K -- Kai Ponte www.perfectreign.com Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government.

Audacity works great on Kubuntu and Mepis. I can't comment on SUSE since I am not running it currently. However, I can tell you Audacity is a great program and very easy to use.

There are some very basic tutorials on their web site. I used them for a few projects that I did.

It certainly is Sean, but keep one thing in mind, it uses a fair amount of disk space per project. That's my only complaint. Editing, and joining different files was a breeze after I learned how the program works. I found the zooming feature a bit too powerful at times, but you can get such a time resolution that you cannot really complain other than to say, it's hard to keep track of where the segment you're working on ends.

Not sure if I will get to that stage :) Sean - -- I believe that every human has a finite number of heartbeats.

On my P-733 Coppermine with 10.0, I've used Audacity to edit and join files with very good results.
