ANLOAD
NAME
anload -- load an annotation item from text description
SYNOPSIS
anload
(-f freq) (-t type) (-s|-h|-e|-m|-M) textfile file
DESCRIPTION
anload
constructs a new annotation item in the given file from text
descriptions of annotations in a text file.
The default format of the text file is one annotation per line. In the
normal mode this should have two
entries: firstly the time in seconds, secondly the text label (not
containing spaces). In the "sample" mode (-s switch), each line
should contain three entries: the starting sample number, the final sample number,
and the annotation. Ensure that the sampling frequency is correct in the
sample mode.
Options
-I
Identify the program version.
-f freq
Use a sampling interval based on 1/freq seconds for sampling the time of each
annotation. Default 10000.
-t type
Place a "type" indicator in the created item header, with the argument
type.
-s
Sample mode. Text lines contain sample numbers or sample ranges, not times.
For example: "1000 label" or "1000 2000 label".
Ensure sampling frequency is supplied with the -f switch.
-h
HTK format load. Equivalent to switches: -s -f 10000000.
-e
ESPS compatible label file format load.
-m
MBROLA .PHO file compatible label file format load.
-M
Millisecond format. Lines contain individual durations in milliseconds (not times)
and then label.
OUTPUT ITEMS
