It does, but you have to manually edit the ~/.cdtooldb. WorkMan uses the same format for its database, so if you have that, a simple "ln -s .workmandb .cdtooldb" should be enough. (After which you can use "cdir" to see the track list for the CD currently in your drive.) Cdtool has the program `cdadd', which helps in creating a database entry for a CD. See "man cdtool" for details. >I know of Mcd and I prefer Workman of the two. I like WorkMan too, except for the fact that it uses the XView libraries (which wouldn't be so bad if something else used them too, but it's kind of a waste to have them for just one small program). I haven't seen WorkMan in the Debian distribution, though -- maybe someone should package it? However, there is the multimedia package in stable/sound. It has both a mixer and a CD player, using plain Xlib (looks quite pretty too). And, for a more long-term solution (maybe), I have begun writing a CD player application that uses the Athena widgets (Xaw, or Xaw3d, or Xaw95, or XawXpm). I'm writing it mostly as a mini-project to learn more Xaw programming, though, so I'm not sure if I'll ever get it completed. If I do, I'll make a Debian package out of it. :) (And I think it'll take from a few weeks to a month for me to get it completed, if I do. No promises. :)) -- -=- Rjs -=- [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
