NAME

       praat-launch - Wrapper for launching Praat with sound files or scripts as argument

SYNOPSIS

       praat-launch [file]

DESCRIPTION

       The praat-launch command allows one to open sound files or scripts with praat from the command line.  The
       sound  file  can  be  of any format accepted by Praat (for instance WAV, FLAC, or MP3).  Scripts are text
       files, usually with the .praat extension.

       If no argument is ginve, then a new instance of praat is started.

       A existent instance of the Praat program is used for opening the file.  It there is no instance  running,
       a new one is created.

       This  program is intended to be used with the desktop file present in the Debian distribution, but may be
       useful to regular users.
