I want to develop a simple script for converting wave files to mp3s
using the lame encoder. I need too automate the process, which takes
to much time with helper applications like iTunes (opening iTunes,
import the wave files, convert them, populate the ID3 tags).  The
script would also take the file name and populate the ID3 tags. It
would primarily help me with my mixed audio files where no CDDB entry
exist for these files. The process seems straight-forward i.e.,
dropping the lame.exe into the bin folder. But a guide would help me
through the process.

 After a Google search, my results did not return a tutorial for
installing lame. One cygwin thread mentioned compiling the lame source
code. Other people mentioned using mplayer, which presents the same
request for assistance. Please let me know if you have any guide for
installing and using the lame encoder under cygwin.
