Transcriber-1.4.3 download page
Source distribution
You will also need:
-
Snack (2.0.2 or
higher) for
multi-platform audio driver - and much more other useful things! A source
distribution of Snack 2.1 is mirrored
locally.
-
tcLex1.2
a flex-like parsing extension for Tcl,
-
Tcl/Tk version 8.0 or
later for the interface and more... (if you do not already have it).
And optionaly, as an extension for the Snack module:
-
Sphere_2.6a
for specific NIST/SPHERE audio format access.
Binary distributions
Binary distributions are not always available for all platforms with
the latest version of the tool, so check the version! If you do not find a
binary for your platform, either build it from the sources (above) and please
make it available to others, or download a binary for an
older version. For ease of use, Snack and tcLex
modules are included in most distributions, but Tcl/Tk has to be installed
separately. Be careful to install only a distribution matching exactly your
Tcl/Tk version.

for Macintosh
Binary distribution
1.4.3 (~1,2 Mb, including Snack and tcLex libraries, prior installation of
Tcl/Tk 8.3.1 is needed - it is not compatible with the more recent 8.3.2
version). It was compiled on an iMac with MacOS 9 but should work with MacOS 8
and other PowerPC models.
-
for Linux/x86
-
Debian
package for use with Debian GNU/Linux compatible distributions (~ 0.5
Mb package, requiring Snack (>=1.6.5) and TcLex). With many thanks to
David A. van Leeuwen. This package is mirrored locally (Transcriber 1.4.3-3).
-
RPM packages for use with
Mandrake 7.0 / 7.1 / 7.2 or Redhat 6.2 / 7.0 GNU/Linux
distributions (~ 1.1 Mb package, requiring Snack 2.0 and TcLex 1.2, which are
also available on the same site for all these distributions). With many thanks
to Damien Mercier. Three of the packages are also mirrored locally
(Transcriber 1.4.3,
Snack 2.1, and
TcLex 1.2a1 for Tcl/Tk>=
8.3), more details and more versions are available on the page given above.
