a simple video editor that works

[Karsten Loh]

Hmm, yes seems Avidemux has been removed from the repos in 16.04, no
idea why. You can still get it from the Avidemux HP (that will require
compiling it though) or from the getdep repo http://www.getdeb.net (I
used to get mine from there anyway since the official versions were
pretty dated usually). That will require you to add the getdeb repos
though. Not sure if you are comfortable with that, they do have a good
explanation for the process here:
http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/16.04#how_to_install . It's easy
enough if you simply use their getdeb package. It remains an unofficial
repository though, keep that in mind.

Evil Overlord Rule #139: If I'm sitting in my camp, hear a twig snap, start to investigate, then encounter a small woodland creature, I will send out some scouts anyway just to be on the safe side. (If they disappear into the foliage, I will not send out another patrol; I will break out the napalm.)
