Hello George,

Your example seems to work fine for me on Windows XP

$ chuck --version
chuck version: 1.3.4.0 (chimera)
   microsoft win32 : 32-bit
   http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/
   http://chuck.stanford.edu/

$ cat blerg.ck

SinOsc s => Gain g => dac;
s.freq(400);
g.gain(0.5);
g => WvOut w => blackhole;
"blerg.wav" => string file;
w.wavFilename(file);
1::second => now;
w.closeFile(file); // what is the function of the argument here? can
WvOut record multiple buffers at once?

$ chuck blerg.ck

blerg.wav opens fine in VLC, Audacity, and Reaper.
