- StripWav: WAVE file header stripper
- Version 1.2 (20 Sep 96)

-
-
- This program removes the summary information placed by some programs
- into the headers of WAVE files. This extra information is legal
- according to Microsoft's definition of the file format, but causes
- problems with older programs that assume that everything after the
- file header is sample data.
-
- The 32-bit version of StripWav is called stripwav.exe, and requires
- Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT.
-
- The 16-bit version is called stripw16.exe, and requires Windows 3.1.
- (It will run on 32-bit versions of Windows as well, but you should
- use the 32-bit version instead--it's both faster and smaller.)
-
- You can strip header information from a file in any of the following
- ways:
-
- - start up the program, then choose the file with File|Strip;
-
- - start up the program, then choose it from the most recently used
- files on the File menu;
-
- - drag the file to the program icon when the program isnÆt running;
-
- - drag the file to the program window when it is running; or
-
- - type the command "stripwav myfile.wav" at the command prompt, with an
- optional "/close" argument to have the program close when it finishes
- successfully. (For the 16-bit version, use "stripw16 myfile.wav".)
-
- You are free to use this program however you choose. I only ask that
- if you want to pass it on to someone else, have them download it from
- my Web site at http://www.lightlink.com/tjweber rather than giving them
- a copy directly.
