Package: cdtool
Version: 2.1.5-13
Severity: wishlist

Hello Maintaner/Upstream,

cdvolume works curently if the parameter is an integer of 0 to 255.

Please add the option +/- to the parameter to let $USER increase or
decrease the volume like

    cdvolume -10
    cdvolume +5
    ...

But since the options -0 to -9 already exist, what about the prefix
d(decrease) and i(ncrease) like

    cdvolume d10
    cdvolume i5

This can then be used on "very light desktops" with multimedia
keyboards without the need of heavy X tools.

Currently I use a wraper, which invokes "cam" but its not a real
solution since it must store the current value in a file.

Example of my Fvwm-Config:

key     XF86AudioStop           A N     Exec cdplay stop
key     XF86AudioPrev           A N     Exec cdplay -
key     XF86AudioNext           A N     Exec cdplay +
key     XF86AudioPause          A N     Exec cdplay resume
key     XF86AudioMedia          A N     Exec cdplay eject

            Which could be "cdplay toggletray" (previous wish)

key     XF86AudioMute           A N     Exec tdcamvol --mute

                              Can be "cdvolume 0"

key     XF86AudioLowerVolume    A N     Exec tdcamvol --lower 5
key     XF86AudioRaiseVolume    A N     Exec tdcamvol --raise 5

            And here my wish:  "cdvolume d5" and "cdvolume i5"


Thanks
