 Thanks for the replies. I finally managed to do it by vsound. I used the 
 command 

 vsound -f output.wav realplay input.rm

 and it worked. Only downside is that I have to sit and wait till the file 
 finished playing. But this is a one time issue for me. So that is fine.

That's why I prefer the mplayer command-line approach.  You can 
run it through screen or as an at job when you're not logged in.

what do you use to play the file? It could support writing to .wav file. 
if not, mencoder from mplayer package supports it...

But be aware, you're quite possibly violating the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act, if you're in the USA.  It forbids digital-to-digital copying

If you have mplayer (from Marillat's multimedia repository, for example)

  mplayer -ao pcm:file=foo.wav foo.rm

should do it.

First note about breaking of copyrights (yes, if you are in US, this would
break the law) and then the method I use for such purposes (and when I am
sure, it is legally OK) is to play it with any xine-based player (kaffeine,
amarok, whatever) and set xine's output to file. You will get
~/xine-out.wav as a result.

According to the Franciscan priest Richard Rohr, spirituality is
not for people who are trying to avoid hell; it is for people
who have been through hell. In many ways, spirituality is about
what we do with our pain. And the truth is, if we don't
transform it, we will transmit it.

It is not at all clear that what he proposes would be illegal in the US.
Look up the Audio Home Recording Act.

Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics,
died in 1906, by his own hand.  Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died
similarly in 1933.  Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics.

If you have the right codecs, I'd use mplayer -ao pcm:file=name of wav
file realmedia file.
