Lance,
I'm the developer of libsndfile.
Since you are posting to the DEVELOPER's list I will assume that you
are a developer. It sould be trivial to modify the sfplay program
from libsndfile to do what you want.

It doesn't currently work in sfconvert, but libsndfile recognises
"-" as the appropriate filename stdin or stdout. Again, modifying
sfconvert to do this would be trivial.

VOC is coming in libsndfile version 1.0.0 due out RSN (real soon now).

Any others you care to mention?

Journalist: Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has finally said Linux
is the No. 1 threat to Windows. What's your response to that?
Linus : "Tag, you're it." I don't care. They've had a lot of
enemies in their time. Let them fight one enemy that
doesn't care for a change.
