you said first column or field, but in reality, it is just the first character on the line that has to be a number, correct?
If the first column contains 2abc, then $1+0 would be 2, and 23abc would result in 23. So, its the first consecutive characters that are digits.
I'm not sure I see the changes, unless you mean wrapping it in $() and adding the pipe. Regardless; glad you got it working.

NAME
cdde - Compact Disc Detect & Execute
SYNOPSIS
cdde [-c filename] [-rbvVh]
DESCRIPTION
cdde is a program that detects when a cdrom drive on your system has had a disc inserted.
When it finds a disc inserted in the drive it will attempt to determine the type of the disc, and execute a specified command.
This means you can put in a dvd and your favorite dvd software will start, or put in a data cd and it will be automatically mounted for
you.
Right now cdde can detect the following types of discs:
* audio cd
* data cd
* dvd
* mixed audio/data cd
* vcd
* svcd
* blank cdr/dvdr
For now the dvd checking is just a bit of magic that checks to see if there's a "video_ts" directory on the disc. Same goes for the vcd
checking: it just looks for a "vcd" directory on the disc.
cdde reads its configuration from "~/.cdde.xml" unless otherwise specified on the command line.
OPTIONS
-r, --run
Run commands on disc already in drive when is started.
-b, --batch
Batch mode: check all drives once then exit. (implies -r)
-c, --config <filename>
Use the config file <filename>. (Default is ~/.cdde.xml)
-v, --verbose
Print out lots of information.
-V, --version
Print out version information.
-h, --help
Print Display this help and exit.
FILES
~/.cdde.xml
