version 3.0.10 (2009-03-30)
+ cat mode: fixed bug that prevented use of the -d option
+ cat mode [win32]: properly write WAVE data to the terminal
+ conv mode [win32]: properly read WAVE data from the terminal
version 3.0.9 (2009-03-18)
+ allow fix mode to fix (essentially postpad) just one file, which is useful
when using the -c option to check for boundary issues
+ added new global -F option to specify a file containing input filenames
(most modes will now accept input filenames from a single source, using the
following order of precedence: file specified by -F option, otherwise
filenames on the command line, otherwise filenames read from the terminal)
version 3.0.8 (2008-08-27)
+ added new -a option to show default encoder/decoder arguments
+ fixed bug when prompting for overwrite action when stdin was
already at EOF on certain platforms (e.g. OS X)
+ split mode: handle CUE sheets that contain Unicode BOMs
+ wv format: support self-extracting WavPack files
version 3.0.7 (2008-03-02)
+ support for TAK decoding (requires TAK 1.0.4+)
+ updated MPEG-4 ALS to version RM20, and added output support
+ removed detection of unsupported formats RKAU and WMA
version 3.0.6 (2007-12-16)
+ support for TAK encoding (requires TAK 1.0.3+)
version 3.0.5 (2007-10-22)
+ hash mode: show progress indicators
+ cmp mode: new -c option to specify size of byte-shift comparison buffer
version 3.0.4 (2007-09-07)
+ no longer ignore raw WavPack files (wvunpack creates WAVE header for us)
+ support for TTA 3.4.x as well as TTA encoding
+ fixed display bug in joined mode when input files were not CD-quality
+ split mode: new -m option to allow character manipulation of CUE filenames
version 3.0.3 (2007-06-01)
+ improved use of exit codes
+ mkw format: removed deprecated input kluge
+ split mode: override path separation characters in CUE-generated files
version 3.0.2 (2007-02-18)
+ split mode: -c option works again
+ split mode: support wider range of CUE sheets
+ aiff format: support for sox 13.x
version 3.0.1 (2007-01-24)
+ fixed bug with WavPack format detection on 64-bit systems
+ split mode: fixed bug parsing CUE sheets whose last line lacks a newline
+ added support for MKW files
+ added support for MPEG-4 ALS files (input only)
+ added support for detection of TAK files (no input or output yet)
+ added support for detection of WMA files (no input or output yet)
+ added support for detection of RKAU files (no input or output yet)
version 3.0.0 (2007-01-01)
[platform support]
+ shntool is now a native windows executable (Cygwin is no longer needed)
[file formats]
+ added support for WavPack 4.x files
+ added support for m4a (Apple Lossless Audio Codec) files (input only)
+ added support for la (Lossless Audio) files (input only)
+ added support for tta files (input only)
+ added support for bonk files
+ added support for kxs (Kexis) files (input only)
+ added new format 'term' to send output to a terminal (standard output)
+ cust format: correct output filenames now shown (instead of "file.custom")
+ cust format: partially-written output files are now removed on error
[modes]
+ added new mode 'gen' to generate arbitrary-sized files containing silence
+ added new mode 'trim' to trim silence from front and/or back of files
+ renamed mode 'md5' to 'hash', since it now calculates MD5 and SHA1 hashes
+ hash mode: added option to reorder filenames - may be useful with -c
+ split mode: new -n option to control output count format (01, 001, ...)
+ split mode: support for wider range of CUE sheets
+ split mode: new -t option to name files based on keywords in CUE sheets
+ split mode: fixed bug in which -l option failed with large input files
+ split mode: new -e/-u options for specifying lead-in/lead-out
+ split mode: new -x option to extract specific tracks
+ len mode: show compression ratio for individual files as well as overall
+ len mode: show input file format for each file
+ len mode: new -c/-t options to suppress column names/totals line
+ len mode: configurable units for files and totals
+ conv mode: new -t option to convert WAVE data read from the terminal
+ fix, join and hash modes: filenames can now be sorted automatically using
a natural sorting algorithm, which orders filenames containing numbers the
the same way a human would, e.g. "t1.wav, t2.wav, ... t10.wav" instead of
"t1.wav, t10.wav, t2.wav, ...". as this was taken from the sources of GNU
ls (see 'ls -v'), it is considered stable enough to be the default.
if desired, sorting can still be done interactively, or not at all.
[global behavior]
+ user-configureable progress types (percentage, dots, spin, faces or none)
+ default overwrite option is now 'ask' - can be overridden with -O option
+ allow on-the-fly renaming when files exist and overwrite option is 'ask'
+ new -H option to show h:mm:ss.{ff,nnn} in output, instead of m:ss.{ff,nnn}
+ new -a and -z options to override default file name prefix and postfix
+ new options -w to suppress warnings and -q to suppress non-critical output
+ converted to getopt - this means long options have become single characters
+ alternate input decoder: -i "fmt decoder [arg1 ... argN]"
+ alternate output ext/encoder: -o "fmt [ext=abc] [encoder [arg1 ... argN]]"
+ in addition to the new -i/-o options above, default encoders/decoders
and/or their arguments, as well as file extensions, can be overridden
using any combination of appropriately named environment variables:
ST_<format>_DEC="decoder [arg1 ... argN]"
ST_<format>_ENC="[ext=abc] [encoder [arg1 ... argN]]"
e.g.:
% ST_SHN_DEC="shorten-2.3b" shntool len *.shn
% ST_FLAC_ENC="flake - %f" shntool conv -o flac *.wav
% ST_AIFF_ENC="ext=aif" shntool gen -o aiff -l 1:00
