NAME
audiomass - Wrapper for multiple audio conversion libraries.

SYNOPSIS
audiomass [-h HELP] [-v VERSION] [-c COPYING] [-C CHECK] [-f FILE {..FILENAME}] [-d DIRECTORY {..DIRNAME}] [-b BATCH {..FILENAME_1 ..FILENAME_2 ..FILENAME_3 ..}] [-o OUTPUT {..DIRNAME}]

DESCRIPTION
Audiomass is a command line audio wrapper of the Flac, Lame, Vorbis-tools, Monkey's Audio, Shntool and FFmpeg libraries. It supports conversions of different audio formats at a time and the ability to convert even groups of files in a directory, saving the output in a specific folder. For each input file, audiomass-cli writes to a filename based on the input filename, but with the extension changed to as appropriate to encoding.

OPTIONS

-f, --file
    Single audio conversion. If the (-o) option is not specified, write to the same source directory.

-d, --dir
    Converts a bunch of audio files with the same extension contained in a directory. If the (-o) option is not specified, write to the same source directory.

-b, --batch
    Load a queue of audio files even with different formats located in different locations. If option (-o) is not specified, writes the output to same input file. If more than one file is specified, they must either be separated to one or more white-space.

-o --output
    Save the output files into specified folder. Can be used in conjunction with the (-f), (-d) and (-b) options described above. If you want to save the outputs to a different folder, you might consider using this option.

-C --check
    This option checks the required dependencies by audiomass. Installed packages are marked with '..Ok', while non-installed packages are marked with '..Not Installed'

-h, --help
    Show a short help and exit.

-v, --version
    Show version and date and exit.
