note
Several of PV‑WAVE’s command line options can be combined on one command line.
Standard I/O and Error Redirection
Previous versions of PV‑WAVE on Windows (before Version 6.0), allowed command line flags for standard I/O and error redirection. With Version 6.0, these flags are no longer supported. Instead you can use standard I/O redirection on the command line. For example, the previous command line flags:
wave -i infile -o outfile -e errfile
can be replaced with:
wave < infile > outfile 2> errfile
in PV-WAVE 6.0 and later.
Only the wave command supports I/O redirection. The command wavewin does not support any I/O or error redirection.
