We are interested in studying prosody (emotional tonality) of speech.
We would like to analyze digitized utterances.  I have the tools
to digitize speech into sound files (at 11 or 22 kHz).  I also believe
I could write (or find) a program to Fourier analyze the waveforms
to extract the dominant frequency vs. time (determinant of inflection).
What I need is documentation on the way the digitized speech is stored
in the sound file format.  Can anyone give me the proper pointers to
a TechNote or other reference?  E-mail will be fine, since I doubt
this is a subject of widespread net interest.  

Thanks.
