Phoneme Tool/data format

The phoneme editor embeds the following ASCII text block at the end of a .wav file:

PLAINTEXT
{
example sentence
}
WORDS
{
WORD example <start time> <end time>
{
<phoneme id> <phoneme name> <start time> <end time> 1
}
WORD sentence <as above>
{
<as above>
}
}
EMPHASIS
{
<time> <normalised value>
}
CLOSECAPTION
{
english
{
PHRASE unicode <size of text in *bytes*. Text has no nul-termination.> <Text, formatted in what seems to be either UCS-2 or UTF-16> <start time> <end time>
}
}
OPTIONS
{
voice_duck <1/0>
}

All sections are required, even if they are empty (as emphasis often is).

Todo: Purpose of the final "1" value of a phoneme.

Todo: As relates to the closed-captioning section...what are other valid language identifiers? Are there encodings other than "unicode" that are valid? Can we have multiple "phrases"? Is this method of closed-captioning deprecated or does it supersede the method described here, or do they exist alongside each other?
