The beta release of CDTOOL is now available for anonymous ftp from
jaka.cerl.uiuc.edu, as /pub/tinsel/cdtool-0.5.tgz.  For WWW people, it
is also available at

		http://jaka.cerl.uiuc.edu/~tinsel/files/cdtool-0.5.tgz

CDTOOL is yet another text-based package that allows the user to control 
audio functions of an attached cdrom drive from the command line.  It is 
for Linux, but with minimal modifications, it should work with any operating 
system that uses compatible ioctl's (ie, SunOS).

CDTOOL uses a database to store artist, disc, and track names.  It
uses a simple format compatible with Workman (an OPEN LOOK based cd
player for X).  CDTOOL doesn't do anything fancy.  There is no scan, 
fast forward, repeat, etc.  These functions are better performed by a 
full-screen or graphical program, and CDTOOL is designed to be a 
simple, elegant command line utility.
