tomwalters@0: .TH CONVERT 1 "15 September 1993" tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH NAME tomwalters@0: convert \- Convert units: frequency, time, and sample numbers. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH SYNTAX tomwalters@0: convert [options] arguments tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH DESCRIPTION tomwalters@0: Convert time to samples and vice verca. Options of the general form: tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: -to | to= tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: may be intersperced with arguments, which are treated as values to convert tomwalters@0: into the units given by the previous option on the command line. tomwalters@0: Time in seconds or milliseconds is converted to and from sample points using tomwalters@0: the given samplerate. Time (in seconds, miliseconds or samples) is converted tomwalters@0: to and from frequency by reciprocal. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH EXAMPLES tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .nf tomwalters@0: 1. Convert 100 samples to time in ms, and the 10ms to a number of tomwalters@0: samples, both at the default sample-rate of 20kHz. Then at a tomwalters@0: sample-rate of 10kHz print the number of samples in 32ms. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: convert to=ms 100p to=p 10ms samplerate=10kHz to=p 32ms tomwalters@0: .fi tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .nf tomwalters@0: 2. Convert 0.1 seconds to sample points. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: convert -topoints 0.1sec tomwalters@0: .fi tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH COPYRIGHT tomwalters@0: .LP tomwalters@0: Copyright (c) Applied Psychology Unit, Medical Research Council, 1995 tomwalters@0: .LP tomwalters@0: Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software without fee tomwalters@0: is hereby granted for research purposes, provided that this copyright tomwalters@0: notice appears in all copies and in all supporting documentation, and that tomwalters@0: the software is not redistributed for any fee (except for a nominal tomwalters@0: shipping charge).
