gollark: WAV is just PCM with some kind of header.
gollark: See, there's a real lack of annoying beep generation software out there. When I wanted to generate annoying beeps aka some sine waves for a project, I had to cobble together a Python script to inefficiently generate WAV files.
gollark: Anyway, I have several never-to-be-finished-or-probably-worked on new project ideas:- a simple search engine for osmarks.tk- annoying beep generator in the browser supporting custom frequencies and whatnot- a textual SVG editor thing in which you write code/templates which write SVG
gollark: I'm sure they are.
gollark: Oh, okay then.
