CDADD(1) User Commands CDADD(1)NAME
cdadd - add information for a new CD to .cdtooldb
SYNOPSIS
cdadd [-[0..9]|-d device]
DESCRIPTION
The cdadd command is a shell script which uses cdir -t and assists users in adding a new entry to the ~/.cdtooldb database file. It allows
the user to edit a blank template database entry for the current compact disc, and then appends it to the file.
FILES
~/.cdtooldb - default database file.
ENVIRONMENT
CDTOOLDBPATH - colon delimited path of database files to search. It is not necessary to specify ~/.cdtooldb, as this is automatically
added to the end of the search path.
CDTOOLDEV - device file for cd-rom, overrides compile-time defaults.

CDOWN(1) User Commands CDOWN(1)NAME
cdown - query cddb database for info on a disc
SYNOPSIS
cdown
cdown [-[0..9]|-d device] [-H H] [-P P] [-V|-?|-h]
DESCRIPTION
The cdown command is a command to query the CD-ROM for track information, use this to fetch information on this CD-ROM from the CDDB data-
bases (freedb.freedb.org), and then output the information in a form suitable for cdir(1).
cdown prints the information it downloads on stdout, in a format suitable for appending to .cdtooldb. Should there be an uncertainty as to
which CD-ROM information it should download, it prints a list of alternatives to stderr and prompts for the user to select one.
A network connection is required for this to operate properly.

-H host
get database using HOST (def=freedb.freedb.org)
-P port

-r output raw answer of the CDDB server
-v verbose output
-D enable runtime debugging
-V print version, exit
-[?|h] print help, exit
FILES
~/.cdtooldb - default database file.
ENVIRONMENT
CDTOOLDBPATH - colon delimited path of database files to search. It is not necessary to specify ~/.cdtooldb, as this is automatically
added to the end of the search path.
CDTOOLDEV - device file for cd-rom, overrides compile-time defaults. CDDBHOST - host to query, overrides compile-time default
