Standalone Commands and Functions

RTcmix includes several utility programs for working with soundfiles, printing information, etc. These are “standalone” executables, designed to work as commands typed into a Terminal or Shell window. For the commands to work it is assumed that your $path is set correctly so that the “RTcmix/bin” (or similar installed location for RTcmix commands) is searched (see the installation guide).
