.wav file information

Does anyone know of a program that can display the information stored in .wav file header? I don't need to play the file, just know the frequency, word size (eg 8 16 32) and number of channels. I've found hundreds of programs that can give me this info for mp3/ogg files, but I need it for plain old wav files. Can be either Linux or Windows based, but Linux would be better.

 

Suggestions much appreciated!

 

Background:

I designing a piece of software to play back .wav files for a Uni project. Part of it is a routine that reads the file header and decodes its. I'm pretty sure what I've written is correct but it would be nice to get some confirmation.
