DESCRIPTION

convert one or more *.wav file(s) to *.mp3 file(s).

Each given file1.wav is converted to file1.mp3 as long as the destination file ( file1.mp3 ) does not exist already.

The wav2mp3 command should be installed to the 'Send To' context menu in 'Microsoft™ Windows Explorer' for most convenient usage. To do so, invoke wav2mp3 -i once.

file...
list of *.wav files to convert to *.mp3 . When installed in the 'Send To' menu the selected file(s) in 'Windows Explorer' are passed as a list of files to the wav2mp3 command and all given WAV files are converted and saved as separate MP3 files.

If no file is specified, you are queried to select the file(s) by a open file box dialog where you then can select file(s) to be processed.
