What would be the normal command when having a input.wav file? The link you
provided doesn't give any information about a unix-like encoder. I guess you
could use wine though.
Then something like:
wine /path/to/shortn32 %i.wav %o.shn
Does this help in any way?

well will try shorten %i.wav %o.shn since i have it as a linux codec too
and could use your line from my EAC shortn32.exe path
i get
Ripping progress (100 %)
Encoding progress (0 %)
Adding track 2 (other) to the queue..
command = shorten "/home/shantiq/other/temp_sr0/track2_1.wav".wav
"/home/shantiq/other/Angélique Kidjo (2001) Keep On Moving (The Best Of)/02 -
Voodoo Child (Slight Return).shn"
shorten: could not open file '/home/shantiq/other/temp_sr0/track2_1.wav.wav'
for input
shorten: for more information use: shorten -h

Encoding progress (100 %)

shantiq@shantiq-desktop:~$
then i use
wine /home/shantiq/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Exact Audio
Copy/Flac/shortn32.exe% i.wav %o.shn
and got

unix specs for shorten are
shorten version 3.6.1: (c) 1992-1999 Tony Robinson and SoftSound Ltd
Seek extensions by Wayne Stielau; UNIX maintenance by Jason Jordan
Usage: shorten {options} [input file] [output file]
-a 0 bytes to copy verbatim to align file
-b 256 block size
-c 1 number of channels
-d 0 number of bytes to discard before compression or decompression
-e erase seek table appended to input file
-h help (this message)
-i inquire as to whether a seek table is appended to input file
-k append seek table information to existing shorten file
-l print the license giving the distribution and usage conditions
-m 4 number of past block for mean estimation
-n 256 minimum signal to noise ratio in dB (256 == lossless coding)
-p 0 maximum LPC predictor order (0 == fast polynomial predictor)
-q 0 acceptable quantisation error in bits
-r 32.0 maximum number of bits per sample (32.0 == lossless coding)
-s generate seek table information in separate file [input file].skt
-S[name] generate seek table information in separate file given by [name]
-t wav specify the bit packing and byte ordering of the sample file from
{aiff,wav,ulaw,alaw,s8,u8,s16,u16,s16x,u16x,s16hl,u16hl,s16lh,u16lh}
-u merge the two zero codes in ulaw files
-v 3 format version number (2: no seek info; 3: default)
-x extract (all other options except -a, -d and -t are ignored)

The correct for shorten is simply
shorten "%i" "%o".shn

You could also have looked at the Manual wiki page. Anyway, this one seems
solved.

looked at the wiki and tried to work out ape using the mac codec but so far no
good
any better offers ?
mac --artist %a --album %b --title %t --genre %g --track %n --year %y -o %o.ape %i
Original comment by holin...@googlemail.com

And what does the command "mac %o.ape %i" do?
You should always look at the specific syntax of any encoder. The only thing
rubyripper does is replace the tags %a, %b, etcetera with the relevant info.
After the %o (output file) you should enter the extension for the encoder.
For example the syntax for oggenc (vorbis) "oggenc -h" shows (filtered):
Usage: oggenc [options] inputfile [...]
-o, --output=fn Write file to fn (only valid in single-file mode)
-d, --date Date for track (usually date of performance)
-N, --tracknum Track number for this track
-t, --title Title for this track
-l, --album Name of album
-a, --artist Name of artist
-G, --genre Genre of track

also boukewoudstra if you do not mind may i suggest you add these to the
wikipage
for guys like myself who have not great technical understanding ( i have added
them as a comment for the time being)
these settings work perfectly
for wavpack wavpack -w "Artist=%a" -w "Title=%t" -w "Album=%b" -w "Year=%y"
-w "Track=%n" -w "Genre=%g" -hhm %i -o "%o.wv"
for mp3HD mp3hdEncoder -if "%i" -of "%o".mp3 -mode 1 -Title "%t" -Artist "%a"
-Album "%b" -Track "%n" -Year "%y" -Genre "%g"
for tta ttaenc -e "%i" -o "%o".tta
for shorten shorten "%i" "%o"
for m4a/aac faac --artist %a --album %b --title %t --genre %g --track %n
--year %y -o %o.m4a -q 500 %i
still trying with ape will post when sorted regards shan

I would expect for the shorten command to have the extension set at .shn. But
perhaps the encoder already sets the extension.
I think this might indeed be nice for the average user. I don't see the problem
of a comment. They're accessible for all visitors.
