2013-10-09dtas-partstats: initial implementation
dtas-partstats divides large audio files into small partitions (10 seconds by default) and runs the "stats" effect of sox(1) against each partition. Currently it emits space-delimited output, but configurable output options (including Sequel/SQLite) support is coming. The intended use of this tool is for quickly finding the loudest portions of a given recording without the need for a graphical viewer. This can be useful for selectively applying (and testing the results of) dynamic range compression filters. Use with sort(1) in a pipeline is recommended in this scenario (but again, Sequel support is coming).
