.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
program copies the audio devices to the named audiofile, or the standard
program copies the audio device to the named audiofile or to the standard
output if no file is named.
The output file will contain either a Sun/NeXT audio header (default), a
RIFF/WAVE audio header or no header at all. For Sun output files when
using a linear PCM encoding, we always output big-endian signed samples,
possibly after converting these from little-endian and/or unsigned
samples. For RIFF/WAVE files, we always use little-endian, signed
samples, also converting if necessary (there is no support for RIFX output.)
