NAME
cdtool2cddb - convert .cdtooldb file to set of CDDB files SYNOPSIS
cdtool2cddb [-rvx] [-d dir] [-l len] [input...] DESCRIPTION
cdtool2cddb converts one or more .cdtooldb files to CDDB-format files suitable for using with many CD player applications. The output is a set of files, each named for the 32-bit hexadecimal CDDB ID number of a given audio CD. These files are placed in the current directory unless -d is specified. OPTIONS
-d directory Specify the output directory. This is where the 8-digit output filenames go. There will be one file for each CD definition in your .cdtooldb file(s). -l length Specify the maximum line length for the output file. Comment lines may be any length, but the CDDB format specifies that data lines must wrap at 76 characters. Thus, this is the default for cdtool2cddb, but you may change it if you wish. -r At least one CD player application (groovycd) requires lines of its CDDB files to end with CR-LF, because they come over the network that way. The -r option tells cdtool2cddb to output such lines; otherwise lines will end with LF only. -v Increment the verbosity level. -x Use an alternate identification string in the output file. If you wish to upload a CDDB file to a CDDB server via e-mail, the server will probably check the ID string in the file to make sure it is from a "trusted" CD player application. cdtool is not trusted, but xmcd is, so the -x option pretends we are xmcd. FILES

NAME
gnome-cd - plays audio CDs SYNOPSIS
gnome-cd [gnome-std-options] DESCRIPTION
The CD Player is an application that allows you to play audio Compact Discs. You can perform the following tasks: o Play, pause, stop, or eject a CD o Move through the tracks on the CD o Adjust the output volume from the CD o Edit the CD track information If you are connected to the Internet, CD Player will attempt to retrieve CD information from CDDB. CDDB is a global database of CD informa- tion. Each CD has a unique identity, which the CD Player can read. If you are connected to the Internet, CD Player will search a CDDB server for that CD's identity and return the information found. This usually includes Title, Artist, and Track information. Once retrieved, this information is stored locally under $HOME/.cddbslave. If you choose to edit this information, you will overwrite what is stored under $HOME/.cddbslave. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: gnome-std-optionStandard options available for use with most GNOME applications. See gnome-std-options(5). EXAMPLES
