record - a simple recording script for your Mac

Written originally for OSCON 2002, this is a simple record script that I wrote for my Mac (and my home-built headphone-embedded binaural microphone). I recently updated this to make sure that it still works (it does), although honestly, if you have an iPod, I recommend picking up a Griffin iTalk, it's great.

Still, this is a handy script to have in your ~bin just in case.

I recommend using Fink to install esdrec and lame:

sudo fink install esound
sudo fink install lame
