What file format should be used for 16-bit PCM sample recordings? The first (in the order of development) group of utilities in the present package that need to read and write such files are gsm[e]fr-encode and gsm[e]fr-decode, designed to mirror amrnb-enc and amrnb-dec from opencore-amr FOSS package; these utilities read and write WAV files and even use WAV reading and writing functions copied from opencore-amrnb test code. However, as I (Mother Mychaela) keep developing more tools, my use cases become more diverse: in some use cases WAV is most convenient (e.g., when playing or recording with SoX tools), but in other use cases a raw sample file without any header is much more convenient. To address this diversity of use cases, a pair of conversion utilities have been written: pcm16-raw2wav converts from raw format to WAV pcm16-wav2raw converts from WAV to raw format Both utilities take a mandatory command line argument specifying the endian order for the raw format - there is no default.
