[vorbis] Joining .WAV files with ogg-vorbis

[Glendon M. Gross]

By the way, I was delighted to find out that I could join .ogg files
with cat, i.e.

cat {file1.ogg} file2.ogg > outputfile.ogg

<p>I successfully used this capability, together with oggenc and sox, to
join two .WAV files in the following manner:

<p>oggenc -q9 file1.wav 
 
...

oggenc -q9 file2.wav


---

cat file1.ogg file2.ogg > outfile.ogg

ox outfile.ogg outfile.wav 

I get a few complaints from sox about "holes in the file, probably
harmless."
But the resulting file has a nice RIFF header and works fine for me.  So
after searching the internet for an easy way to combine .wav files, I am
glad
to discover that xiph's commitment to open standards has solved one of
my
problems caused by a bad design of a proprietary standard.  :)
