StripWav: WAVE file header stripper
Version 1.2 (20 Sep 96)

This program removes the summary information placed by some programs
into the headers of WAVE files. This extra information is legal
according to Microsoft's definition of the file format, but causes
problems with older programs that assume that everything after the
file header is sample data.

The 32-bit version of StripWav is called stripwav.exe, and requires
Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows NT.

The 16-bit version is called stripw16.exe, and requires Windows 3.1.
(It will run on 32-bit versions of Windows as well, but you should
use the 32-bit version instead--it's both faster and smaller.)

You can strip header information from a file in any of the following
ways:

- start up the program, then choose the file with File|Strip;

- start up the program, then choose it from the most recently used
files on the File menu;

- drag the file to the program icon when the program isn’t running;

- drag the file to the program window when it is running; or

- type the command "stripwav myfile.wav" at the command prompt, with an
optional "/close" argument to have the program close when it finishes
successfully.  (For the 16-bit version, use "stripw16 myfile.wav".)

You are free to use this program however you choose.  I only ask that
if you want to pass it on to someone else, have them download it from
my Web site at http://www.lightlink.com/tjweber rather than giving them
a copy directly.
