Automatically append intro/outro to podcast, convert to mp3 (use with Quelea, sox, and lame)

instructions

1) Place this batch file in with your raw wav files
2) Set the introlocation (where your intro and outro files are located) and outputlocation (where you want the final mp3 to land)
3) Run this batch file.

This will fine the most recent wav file in the current directory, append the intro and outro, and then convert it to mp3.

Especially good for use with Quelea. Requires sox.exe and Lame encoder (This script uses Lame for Audacity)

Created and used on Windows 10. Please let me know if you have issues!
