BUT I DON'T have the choice the audio files i get does have metadatas
writen in xml mixed with binary audio datas. The line endings are
"correct" within the xml. I have to face with the output given by
various recorders.

i've uploaded in <http://thoraval.yvon.free.fr/Audio>

a *** truncated *** version of one of the file i'm getting the xml part,
this file is named "bidule-truncated.wav" don't play it as an audio file
because i've writen :

[audio part truncated]

in the middle of the audio part to make it lighter (4k instead of MBs).

anyway thanks a lot helping me for that line endings ;-)
