description Fast compression for waveform files
long_description \
Shorten reduces the size of waveform files (such as audio) using \
Huffman coding of prediction residuals and optional additional \
quantisation. In lossless mode the amount of compression obtained \
depends on the nature of the waveform. Those composing of low \
frequencies and low amplitudes give the best compression, which may \
be 2:1 or better. Lossy compression operates by specifying a \
minimum acceptable segmental signal to noise ratio or a maximum bit \
rate. Lossy compression operates by zeroing the lower order bits of \
the waveform, so retaining waveform shape.
