Praat script to slice a long WAV file into individual small files.

The scripts takes a sound file that may contain, e.g., a whole recorded session with various sentences, slices the original file down, writing the sound slices in individual WAV files.

A WAV sound file and a previously segmented TextGrid file with matching name. The accompanying TextGrid should contain one interval tier. The portion of the waveform bounded by each interval will be sliced. Only non-empty intervals (i.e., those filled by the user with one or more characters) will be sliced. The character string filling a given boundary will be used to name the sliced sound enclosed by that boundary.

WAV sound files written in a user-specified directory sliced down from a source wav file.

Upon running the script, a window like the one below will appear, where the user has to fill the three fields.

Script file and user files don't need to be in the same file directory.
