I would like to be able to use my OpenBSD box to do
unattended recording from a radio using at/cron.

I could use sox but I'd prefer something like
bplay/brec which includes buffering so that the recording
doesn't stutter when the system is very busy or doing
a lot of disk I/O.

Bplay was written for Linux and hasn't been ported to OpenBSD
as far as I can tell. Does anybody know of some other
command-line audio recording program which will work
and includes buffering?

Are you talking about `streaming radio` ?
