title: Generate a waveform image from an audio file
body: <p>Building a python application that converts raw audio files into wave using sox on a linux system. I want it to be able to generate an image (PNG or Jpeg) of the audio waveform pattern but I am unable to find a command line tool or python package that will do this. Not being an experience Python programmer my options are limited.</p>
  
  <p>There are several linux applications available that require a running desktop (Gtk) which I do not have. These are useless.

  <p>GnuPlot and Octave seem to only be able to produce spectrograph's which is not what I am trying to do. </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
