Folks,
In tagging my media collection, naming my files and talking on-line, i'm
unsure of how to write out the bit rate and sampling rate of files.
What is standard?
24-bit/96 khz ?
24 bit, 96khz ?
24bit/96 khz ?
or some combination of the above?
Thanks,
Bearcat

I don't particularly like having characters which are special to
Linux shells in file-names nor in sound file tags. They're slightly
harder to deal with. Slash (/) is one of the characters I try to
avoid, as are spaces ( ).
Cheerio....

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

Heh, yeah.
However, I don't think those should be of concern here. Slashes or
tildes, these would be part of metadata, and not data, which any
POSIX-compliant environment/interpreter would never come into direct
contact with except between scripts (you are then responsible for
maintaining this sanity). You are allowed to go crazy with characters
as long as they can be displayed by the system, and as long as you're
not talking about file naming (which is real data to the environment).
Since manufacturers also use the hyphen in place of the slash, a safer
bet would then be 24-96 if you're paranoid.

Most of the other characters suggested can have specific meaning when

Also, the visual effect of the character looks much more meaningful

True, but if bash is anything like [t]csh, then a tilde (~) in the
middle of a word doesn't have any special meaning.

Oh, if you choose to use the abbreviation for kilohertz, then kHz,
with the H capitalized, would be more correct.
