[ILUG] Sound file conversion

[cybersean3000 at yahoo.com]

The July 2001 edition (issue 10 ) of Linux Magazine (www.linux-
magazine.co.uk) dedicates a good portion of the magazine to CD burining.  
A sub-article mentions converting between audio file formats.

For .mp3 to .wav, they mention mpg123 and for .wav to .mp3 they mention 
bladeenc.

I do not know of any utility to go directly from one format to another 
without doing something with a .wav file.  You may want to search for 
utils that convert .wav to .au, and then write a shell script to do the 
whole conversion for you.

Good Luck!
