WAV recording functionality using pyaudio

recorder.py

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
'''recorder.py
Provides WAV recording functionality via two approaches:

Blocking mode (record for a set duration):
>>> rec = Recorder(channels=2)
>>> with rec.open('blocking.wav', 'wb') as recfile:
...     recfile.record(duration=5.0)

Non-blocking mode (start and stop recording):
>>> rec = Recorder(channels=2)
>>> with rec.open('nonblocking.wav', 'wb') as recfile2:
...     recfile2.start_recording()
...     time.sleep(5.0)
...     recfile2.stop_recording()

thanks to you i made my work too easily.
thank you very much!!
