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.
