Description
The goal of wavsilence is to take large WAV files with gaps of silence and create smaller
WAV files containing the data between the gaps. This is done based on length and tolerance
parameters, which are used to determine what qualifies as silence. The original use was to
split up the chapters of large audio book files.
Requirements
Development and testing is performed on an x86 machine running RedHat 9, using gcc-3.x.
Although testing has not been performed on other platforms, wavsilence should run on
any UNIX machine, and possibly on Windows. If you succeed in using wavsilence on another
platform, please let me know.
Note: Users have reported that wavsilence runs under Windows with the
CYGWIN environment! Users wishing to use wavsilence
under Windows should download the cygwin.dll file from their site, and install
it on their systems, per the provided instructions. After doing so, the Windows executable
provided here should run.
