Assuming someprog writes raw 16-bit signed stereo PCM to its
standard output, the following encodes the output of someprog to
foo.ogg, without using any temporary file :

  someprog | oggenc -r -o foo.ogg - 

For example, to encode track 1 of the audio CD in the drive :

  cdparanoia -r 1 - | oggenc -r -o track1.ogg -

Caveat : last time I looked, DOS implemented pipes with temporary
files.
