You can edit the code for your own personal use, but please do not share it.
If you have added new options and want to share them with the world, just contact me. It's like making a pull request, except the code isn't available on GitHub.
If it’s okay, we can merge our code and publish a new version of the application. Of course, you will be credited.

2. About the application:
GOGO No Shippo is a simple, friendly accessible gui for the GOGO no-coda MP3 encoder. It is designed for batch conversion of WAV files to MP3 without using the command line and without breaking on non-ASCII characters such as Polish diacritics etc.
The application allows the user to select a folder from which all WAV files will be converted to MP3. Each WAV file is encoded individually. The resulting MP3 file always has the same base name as the original WAV file and is saved in the same folder.
Bitrate and Q parameters can be selected from a predefined lists, or can be also defined manually by entering custom GOGO parameters. These two approaches can be combined. This means that a user can choose a bitrate preset and still append additional GOGO options.
3. How it Works?
3.1: GOGO information:
The application itself does not perform any audio encoding. All actual encoding work is done by gogo.exe. GOGO No Shippo only prepares command-line parameters, iterates through files in a selected folder, and invokes GOGO separately for each file.
GOGO No Shippo uses GOGO-no-coda version 3.13 from May 20 2004 distributed under the LGPL license, downloaded from
https://www.rarewares.org/
GOGO is an MP3 encoder based on Lame 3.88.
3.2: How to use?
Just open the GoGoNoShippo.hta.
Firstly, you need to select a folder with wav files. To select folder use the Browse button, or enter path manually.
Next you can choose bitrate. If none of the predefined options meet your expectations, select the “Define manually in command” option and perform your own command in the edit box.
Next to the bitrate, you can find the list which you can use to select the encoding quality (Parameter -q from 0 (highest) to 9 (lowest)). The default setting is (0 highest).
Next is an edit box where you can enter any GOGO commands.
If you don't know any, just press "Show GOGO commands" button. New read only field will appear with full stderr output from the encoder.
You can also check the checkbox to delete all original files after conversion automatically.
