 # Codec 2 README
 
-Codec 2 is an open source (LGPL 2.1) low bit rate speech codec: http://rowetel.com/codec2.html.  It is written in C99 standard C for compilation by `gcc`.

-We have standardized on gcc/C99.  We and encourage people who want to use non-standard compilers like MSVC and certain embedded compilers to maintain their own Codec 2 forks. Our focus needs to be on what’s unique about our project – the speech codec and modem waveforms – rather than consuming time and resources on non-core activities that others can do equally well. If you decide to fork Codec 2 to a non C99/gcc compiler - please ensure you port the ctests and that they all pass.  If the tests have not been ported or do not pass - it's not Codec 2.

Please note the utility/development command line applications (e.g. `freedv_rx.exe`) may not work exactly the same on the Windows CLI compared to running on a Unix machine/shell.  For example pipes may not function as expected, and ctests are not supported.  Our primary development and test environment is Unix, and we lack the resources to support and maintain these applications for other operating systems.
