page: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml > manpage.1'. You may view
the manual page with: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml | nroff -man |
less'. A typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:

The docbook-to-man binary is found in the docbook-to-man package.
Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the
debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include
docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field.

<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> attempts to detect onset times, the
beginning of discreted sound events, in audio signals.</para>
<para>When started without an input file argument
(<option>--input</option>), <command>&dhpackage;</command> creates jack
input and output ports. When an input file is given, the results are given
on the console.</para>

<title>OPTIONS</title>
<para>This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
below.</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-i</option>
<option>--input filein</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Run analysis on this audio file. Most common uncompressed formats are
supported.</para>

<term><option>-o</option>
<option>--output fileout</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Save results in this file. The file will be created on the model of the
input file. Results are marked by a short wood-block sample.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

<term><option>-O</option>
<option>--onset mode</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>The onset detection function to run. Available functions are
<emphasis>complexdomain</emphasis>, <emphasis>hfc</emphasis>,
<emphasis>phase</emphasis>, <emphasis>specdiff</emphasis>,
<emphasis>energy</emphasis>, <emphasis>kl</emphasis> and
<emphasis>mkl</emphasis>. By default, both Kullback Liebler (kl) and complex
domain are used in parallel.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>-t</option>
<option>--threshold value</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Set the threshold value for the onset peak picking. Typical values are
within <literal>0.001</literal> and <literal>0.900</literal>. Default is
<literal>0.1</literal>. <emphasis>Lower</emphasis> threshold values imply
<emphasis>more</emphasis> onsets detected. Try <literal>0.3</literal> in
case of over-detections.</para>
