riff2aiff - convert .wav(e) into .aif(f) files
riff2aiff [[infile] outfile]
Convert infile in the Waveform Audio File Format (RIFF/WAVE, developed by IBM and Microsoft) into outfile in the Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF, developed by Apple). Both store uncompressed audio data in a chunk-based container format. The main difference is that WAVE and AIFF employ the little-endian and big-endian byte order, respectively. Filenames default to /dev/stdin or /dev/stdout. The dash (-) is a shorthand for the default value.
