WDQ2WAV(1)

💖 NAME 💖

wdq2wav — ok so bestie, this girl takes one single channel out of a WinDAQ file and turns it into a wav file. that's the whole job. she's focused. she's efficient. she's an icon. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

wdq2wav [OPTIONS] windaq-file channel-number wav-file

like. three little things and some options. we love a minimal queen. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the vibe: wdq2wav extracts a channel from a WinDAQ file and produces a .wav file. that's it. that's the post. 🦋

and like — if you're too shy to pass all three of the command line parameters (windaq-file, channel-number, and wav-file) when you run it? no worries bestie. the program will prompt you to enter those values once it's running. it's giving interactive main character energy ✨. it literally just asks. so cozy. 🫶

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -p — Play the channel through your audio system. yes queen, you get to hear it. 🔊
• -m — Do not demean. aka: don't subtract the mean of the samples from each sample. it says what it says. 🚫
• -z — Scale the .wav file output without preservation of the zero value. noted. zero value? not preserved. ⚠️
• -v — Verbose mode. she will tell you everything. oversharing era. 💬
• -q — Quiet mode. she will tell you nothing. mysterious era. 🤫
• -h — Show summary of options. the little cheat sheet, the crib notes, the cheat code. 📋
• -r — Show version of program. who is she? what era is she in? find out. 🏷️
