_a_i_f_f_2_a_i_f_f_c is a command-line program which reads an AIFF-C digital audio
input file, and copies the header information and sample data to an AIFF
output file.
The output file contain copies of all the AIFF-C chunks in the original
input file which are backward compatible with the old AIFF spec. This
includes most standard information, such as author and copyright strings
and loop points. The chunks in the new file may not appear in exactly
the same order as in the original file.
It the AIFF-C input file contains data which has been compressed using
one of the compression algorithms supported by the SGI Audio File Library
(CCITT G.722, CCITT G.711), it will be automatically decompressed before
it is copied to the AIFF output file. If the data in the input file has
been compressed using some other algorithm, _a_i_f_c_2_a_i_f_f will return an
error value.
If the AIFF-C input file parses correctly, and the output file is written
with no errors, _a_i_f_c_2_a_i_f_f returns 0. If there is an error, _a_i_f_c_2_a_i_f_f
returns 1.
If the verbose option is specified, _a_i_f_c_2_a_i_f_f periodically prints
messages as sample data is copied from the input file to the output file.
The AIFF and AIFF-C file format specifications are published by Apple
