cddrec

cddrec(1)						      General Commands Manual							 cddrec(1)

NAME

       cddrec - Read Directory Record from CD-ROM directory

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/cddrec [-s number] [-b] file

OPTIONS

       Specifies  the  File  Section  for which the Directory Record is to be read. The numbering starts with one and can be any whole number.	If
       this option is not used, the last file section of the named file is assumed.  Copies the entire Directory Record from a	CD-ROM	in  binary
       format to standard output.  Names a file within the CD-ROM file hierarchy of a mounted CD-ROM File System.

DESCRIPTION

       The  cddrec  command  reads the Directory Record associated with a file or directory on a mounted CD-ROM and lists its contents on standard
       output.

       The output is formatted in a table that contains the name of each field of the Directory Record and the corresponding contents of the entry
       as recorded on the CD-ROM. Note that the System Use field is not listed because it may contain non-printable characters.

       Users must have read permission for file in order to execute the command.

EXIT STATUS

       The  following exit values are returned: The command was successful.  The named file was not found, or was not within the CD-ROM hierarchy,
       or access permission was denied.  The File Section indicated by file does not exist.
