IFF2VOC Version 1.0  --  Kevin S. Bachus -- October 4, 1991.

IFF2VOC is a quick utility I wrote, following up on my recent utility SUN2VOC.
IFF2VOC converts Amiga IFF-format sound files to Sound Blaster VOC files.  It
also parses the IFF file's header information and attempts to extract the Amiga
sample rate which is then converted to work with the Sound Blaster, requiring
virtually no effort on the user's part.  With this program, you can take any of
the many audio files digitized on the Amiga and play them, without any
additional modifications, on any PC equipped with a Sound Blaster sound card.

Operation of the program is simple.  Simply enter "IFF2VOC filename" where
<filename> is the name of the IFF (.iff) file to be processed.  The extension
is optional; if you do not enter one, IFF2VOC assumes .IFF to be the source
extension.  IFF2VOC will then create a destination file using the same file
name as the source, but with a .VOC extension.  You can then use any VOC player
(Creative Labs' VPLAY or Gary Maddox's excellent BLASTER MASTER package, for
example) to hear the sound.  I've tried to optimize the conversion routines for
both speed and size.  The conversion should be quite fast on all but the
largest of files.

Note that the VOC file WILL be compatible with ANY sound player utility on the
PC -- not just the Sound Blaster.  A Sound Blaster VOC file (for the most part)
is simply a raw sound sample with a 32-byte header.  You MAY hear a small
"click" at the beginning of the sample if you play it through another system,
but it WILL work (and can be edited).
