NAME
       auconvert - perform various conversion operations on sound files

SYNOPSIS
       auconvert  [-file  <format>]  [-data  <format>]	[-rate	<sample rate>]
       [-comment <comment>] [-raw <data format> <num tracks>]  [-volume	 <per‐
       cent>|`max'] [-?] [<input file>] [<output file>]

DESCRIPTION
       The  auconvert  program can be used to convert from one sound file for‐
       mat, and/or data format to another.  It can also	 change	 the  comment,
       sampling	 rate,	and volume of a sound file.  Finally, auconvert can be
       used to convert raw audio data into a sound file.   If  no  input  file
       name  is given, standard input will be used.  If no output file name is
       given, the original file will be replaced  by  the  converted  file  or
       standard out will be used if the input is coming from standard input.

OPTIONS
       The following options may be used with auconvert:

       -file format
	       The  output  file format.  The -? option will display a list of
	       valid file formats.

       -data format
	       The output data format.	The -? option will display a  list  of
	       valid  data  formats.  Note that each file format may only sup‐
	       port selected data formats.

       -rate sample rate
	       The output sampling rate (in hertz).

       -comment comment
	       The comment to be stored in the output file.

       -volume <percent>|`max'
	       The volume option can be used in two ways.  If the argument  is
	       a  percentage,  the output file volume will be converted to the
	       specified percentage of the input volume.  If the  argument  is
	       the  string  `max', the output file volume will be converted to
	       its maximum level.

       -raw <data format> <num tracks>
	       This option is used to convert raw  audio  data	into  a	 sound
	       file.   <data format> is the data format of the raw data.  <num
	       tracks> specifies the number of tracks in the  raw  data.   You
	       must  also  use the -file and -rate options when converting raw
	       data.

       -?      Displays a usage message and a list of supported file and  data
	       formats.
