[PD] floating point soundfiles

[Miller Puckette]

Hi Tom,

soundfiler only knows about "nextstep" floating-point soundfiles, but can
read Wav and Aiff 24-bit fixed files too.  I think there's a 23-bit
floating point type defined fo Wav files, but I don't know what the 
header looks like; someday I hope to find this out and support it.

cheers
Miller
