Running wave2feats without arguments gets the usage message.
Anyone know what's up?
Thanks

-verbose requires a (boolean) argument, so use "-verbose yes". If you run the program with no args, you'll get a usage message specifying all the switches and the values they require.

Given that bin/make_feats is broken (see above error message), does this mean that other perl wrappers are broken similarly (I imagine make_feats wasn't changed when wave2feat was updated)? No hard feelings or anything, it would just be helpful if I knew beforehand, and report appropriately.

I don't think I've found any other similar breakages in SphinxTrain. I think you're right that make_feats wasn't updated when wave2feat was changed. This has probably stung a number of users, and I'm sure the CMU crew will make the obvious and quick fix.

Hi Jerry and Ivan,
Thanks for the discussion, I will think an appropiate way is to fix make_feats in future.
My take on SphinxTrain is it is still quite unstable. That's why we never released a stable tar ball of it. I hope that it can be done in the next half a year.

Arthur -- I'm sure there are many things on your to-do list, but I don't understand why you say, vaguely, "in the future" on this one. Surely it's a no-brainer to update make_feats to be consistent with the current state of wave2feat's command-line interface. It's a 10-second fix!
Then people who download the SphinxTrain nightly build (which they should, since it contains recent script changes) won't trip over this inconsistency as Ivan did.
cheers,
jerry

Dear All
Using make_feats I get the following error message (I get the same message if I use wave2feat directly, also if using slightly different arguments):
ivan$ bin/make_feats etc/saraderi.fileids
bin/wave2feat \ -verbose \ -c etc/saraderi.fileids \ -nist \ -di wav \ -ei wav \ -do feat \ -eo feat
ERROR: "cmd_ln.c", line 525: Expecting 'bin/wave2feat -switch_1 <arg_1> -switch_2 <arg_2> ...'
Running wave2feats without arguments gets the usage message.

Thanks for this: now working OK.

Thanks for your note. For the meantime, I'll post here every time I fall over;)
