Really, I just created these functions because I became very tired of trying to hand-decode Apple's CoreAudio AudioStreamBasicDefinition structures. Also, when using CAShow I became even more weary of tring to remember all of the various OSType FourCC codes that CoreAudio uses.

I sincerely hope that using these functions makes your day just a little bit nicer.
