# glame-convert(1)

Convert format of GLAME persistant storage files

## NAME

**glame-convert** — Convert format of GLAME persistant storage files

## SYNOPSIS

**glame-convert** \[*swapfile*\]

## DESCRIPTION

The **glame** audio editor keeps all project data  on disk in a internal representation, called the  swapfile. The format of this swapfile changed between  the 0.4, and the 0.6 series of Glame. **glame-convert** lets you convert an  0.4 swapfile to 0.6 format and vice versa. It will autodetect  which format is currently present and always convert to the other  one.

## OPTIONS

- *swapfile*

  File (directory actually) that acts as Glame's backing store.

## SEE ALSO

**glame** (1), **cglame** (1).
