Under Linux, I tend to choose from either Sweep (sweep.sourceforge.net),
gnoise (gnoise.sourceforge.net) or audacity (audacity.sourceforge.net),
where the latter seems to be the most active one right now, and also the
one (IMHO) with the most comfortable user interface. I have been using
it to extract some 30 samples from a large binary file, and it went
pretty easily and fast. The version I was using then still crashed
sometimes, but CVS access is possible, and a lot of changes have
happened since then.

Just my 0,02 frames,
