HOWTO

# transcode
# =========
# Below are instructions for installing transcode 1.0.2 and transcode from
# CVS.  Keep in mind that I last installed 1.0.2, so the CVS instructions
# may be out of date.

# If you ever want to uninstall transcode or clean up files from an old
# version before installing a new one, skip down to the bottom for
# instructions.
