* toaiff.py: import whatsound instead of sndhdr
* sndhdr.py: renamed to whatsound.py; use new aifc module for AIFF/AIFC
* ftplib.py: added close() (closes without sending QUIT command)
* aifc.py: documented close()

+# This module contains several routines that help recognizing sound
+# files.
+#
+# Function whathdr() recognizes various types of sound file headers.
+# It understands almost all headers that SOX can decode.
+#
+# The return tuple contains the following items, in this order:
+# - file type (as SOX understands it)
+# - sampling rate (0 if unknown or hard to decode)
+# - number of channels (0 if unknown or hard to decode)
+# - number of frames in the file (-1 if unknown or hard to decode)
+# - number of bits/sample, or 'U' for U-LAW, or 'A' for A-LAW
+#
+# If the file doesn't have a recognizable type, it returns None.
+# If the file can't be opened, IOError is raised.
+#
+# To compute the total time, divide the number of frames by the
+# sampling rate (a frame contains a sample for each channel).
+#
+# Function whatraw() calls the "whatsound" program and interprets its
+# output.  You'll have to guess the sampling rate by listening though!
+#
+# Function what() calls whathdr() and if it doesn't recognize the file
+# then calls whatraw().
+#
+# Finally, the function test() is a simple main program that calls
+# what() for all files mentioned on the argument list.  For directory
+# arguments it calls what() for all files in that directory.  Default
+# argument is "." (testing all files in the current directory).  The
+# option -r tells it to recurse down directories found inside
+# explicitly given directories.
+#
+# The file structure is top-down except that the test program and its
