 Both utilities take a mandatory command line argument specifying the endian
 order for the raw format - there is no default.

+Going forward, I (Mother Mychaela) prefer big-endian format for raw PCM16 files:
+aside from it being the network byte order on the Internet, 16-bit and 32-bit
+numbers appear "naturally" in hex dumps in BE, but not in LE.  Therefore, newly
+developed utilities will read and write PCM16 data in "robe" format - "robe" is
+English pronunciation play on "raw BE", and it is also the ritual garment worn
+by Themyscira telecom priestesses. :-)
