"""Convert "arbitrary" sound files to AIFF (Apple and SGI's audio format).
Uncompressed file type may be AIFF, WAV, VOC, 8SVX, NeXT/Sun, and others.
An exception is raised if the file is not of a recognized type.
Returned filename is either the input filename or a temporary filename;
in the latter case the caller must ensure that it is removed.
Other temporary files used are removed by the function.

# XXX The following is actually sub-optimal.
# XXX The HCOM sampling rate can be 22k, 22k/2, 22k/3 or 22k/4.
# XXX We must force the output sampling rate else the SGI won't play
# XXX files sampled at 5.5k or 7.333k; however this means that files
# XXX sampled at 11k are unnecessarily expanded.
# XXX Similar comments apply to some other file types.
