14.4 sunau -- Read and write Sun AU files
The sunau module provides a convenient interface to the Sun AU sound format. Note that this module is interface-compatible with the modules aifc and wave.
The sunau module defines the following functions:
- open (file, mode)
- If file is a string, open the file by that name, otherwise treat it as a seekable file-like object. mode can be any of
'r'- Read only mode.
'w'- Write only mode. Note that it does not allow read/write files. A mode of
'r'returns a AU_read object, while a mode of'w'or'wb'returns a AU_write object.
- openfp (file, mode)
- A synonym for open, maintained for backwards compatibility.
The sunau module defines the following exception:
- Error
- An error raised when something is impossible because of Sun AU specs or implementation deficiency.
The sunau module defines the following data item:
- AUDIO_FILE_MAGIC
- An integer every valid Sun AU file begins with a big-endian encoding of.
