WaveCutter Ver.1.0    August 18, 1999
                      Revised on September 25, 1999

WaveCutter is a tool that divides large WAV files into smaller ones as 
specified length. When you convert analog sound such as LP record, compact 
cassette tape, etc. into digital, you can record whole side of sound at a 
time into one WAV file. After that, you can edit it with WaveCutter to be 
separate smaller WAV files of each piece of music with ease of use 
operation. 

// WaveCutter Advantages //

1. Editing files in every second, millis-second with accuracy
You can easily specify the position to divide ( break point ) the file by
 operating "WAV file editing grid" in every m sec.

2. Silence part detection
WaveCutter detects silence part of the WAV files and display the part 
visually to help users to decide break point. But WaveCutter never divides 
file automatically according to silence part because such detected break 
positions are not 100% correct. We believe that it is more convenient for 
users to suggest where silence part is and users make decision to insert 
break point.

3. Editing files with listening to the sound
You can play any part of the file just by clicking the mouse. With the 
feature of "Play to next breakpoint", you can specify accurate break point 
easily.
