-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi people, You might be interested in a little program derived from parts of wedit, my wave editor, and soap, my self organizing audio player. This one is called WR, the Wave Reader. It recognizes the same 25 audio formats as wedit, plus plain text files. It converts each file to wave format with the same set of nine helpers as wedit, plus a call to either flite or a cepstral voice for the TTS operation on text files. WR lets you navigate through a playlist of files, and also lets you navigate while listening to a file. It saves your place in a log file if you terminate before the end of the file, and returns to the same place later if you want it to. It does not have to store an entire converted wave file in memory, but pages through a large file if necessary. It will not change any input file given to it. The program is available in a tarball which you must compile and install, and can be found at: http://hallenbeck.ftml.net/wr-0.6.1.tar.gz If you don't have all nine helper applications installed on your system, you will not be able to access some of the 25 formats. WR automatically looks for the helpers when it runs, and will simply go ahead with the ones it finds. It does assume the presence of alsa on your system. My thanks to Paul (paulmigs) for his assistance and patience in the design and testing of WR. Hope you find it useful. If it doesn't work for you, let me know. If it can't be made to work, you get your money back.
