convert flac to ape

Why would you do that? ", you may ask. Well, I won't explain. But I needed it to be able to help some people.
With soundconverter you can convert from flac to ape, but not the other way around, from flac to ape.
The solution I found in caudec (AUR).
This command line tool can be used as follows:
caudec -c ape  -q 1 soundfile.flac
You can use 5 different levels: compression level for MonkeysAudio must be a number between 1 and 5, or one of fast (1), normal, high, extra, insane(5).
Without the  -q handle you will get level 2, normal. All levels are lossless; the higher level takes more time and gives more compression.
