linux commandline...

i need a linux guru...

i wrote an perl script to rip an cd and compress the files with flac on linux commandline.

my commandline for ripping is:
Code: [Select]
cdparanoia -X <tracknumber> <outfile.wav>

for compressing:
Code: [Select]
flac <outfile.wav>


now i want to pipe the cdparanoia stream directly to flac for faster ripping process.

Code: [Select]
cdparanoia -X <tracknumber> -
output the stream to stdout instead to an file. but how can i let flac read from stdin???
