AEC(1)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, this is a General Commands Manual page, and the tea is: aec - compress or expand files 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

aec [-3] [-b BYTES] [-d] [-j SAMPLES] [-m] [-n BITS] [-N] [-p] [-r BLOCKS] [-s] [-t] infile outfile

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so aec is literally the queen of lossless compression and decompression 👑 It uses Golomb-Rice coding, as defined in the Space Data System recommended standard 121.0-B-3. No cap, that's the spec it follows ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -3 — 24 bit samples get stored in 3 bytes, and that's the whole vibe 🌸
• -b BYTES — sets the internal buffer size, measured in bytes 🧚
• -d — decompresses infile! If you skip -d, it compresses infile instead 🔥
• -j SAMPLES — sets the block size, counted in samples 💜
• -m — samples are MSB first. The default is LSB first, so only switch this if you mean it 🙈
• -n BITS — sets the bits per sample 🍓
• -N — disables pre/post processing, so no extra glow-up steps 💀
• -p — pads the RSI out to a byte boundary 🫶
• -r BLOCKS — sets the reference sample interval, in blocks ⭐
• -s — samples are signed! The default is unsigned 🌈
• -t — uses a restricted set of code options, very minimalist, very intentional 🦋

That's the whole page, bestie! 🌈 The footer just says AEC(1) with no version or date, so that's all the tea. Signing off, periodt 💅🫶
