       The display option has the format hostname:number.  Using two colons (::) instead of one (:) indicates that DECnet is to be used for trans-
       port.   The  default  is  :0.  For more information, see X(1X).	This option is the same as the -d option.  Specifies the color of the text

DESCRIPTION

       The  xcd  command  displays  a  graphical representation of a compact disk player's control panel using X-based Motif windows.  The display
       includes a main key pad with keys for PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, EJECT, NEXT TRACK, PREVIOUS TRACK, DISK ACCESS LOCK, REPEAT MODES,  SHUFFLE  MODE,
       and  QUIT.   A  status window displays track and time information.  A set of selection buttons, one for each track of an inserted CD, allow
       you to directly select a track to be played.  The selection buttons double as a display of the play sequence with track now  playing  high-
       lighted.  A volume slider adjusts output volume across a scale of 0-100.  The volume control on the CD drive itself should be set to full.

       To use this program you need a workstation with a Compact Disk drive.  The xcd program is not supported.

       Most  of  the buttons on the control panel are self-explanatory.  One, however, may not be obvious.  The padlock button may be used to dis-
       able the eject button on the front of the CD drive.  This can be used to discourage someone from ripping off your CD.

       You can customize some aspects of xcd's appearance by specifying xcd resources in your ~/.Xdefaults file.  Use the Xcd file as a  template.
       This file is found in the /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/ directory.

       xcd  will  attempt  to  find the cd player on your machine.  If you have multiple CD-ROM players on your machine, it will use the first one
       found. The method it uses is to start scanning the bus using CAM from low to high, so the lowest numbered CD-ROM on the lowest numbered bus
       will  be  the  selected	device.  To override this selection, set the environment variable CDROM or the -cd option which will override this
       mechanism.  For the automatic location of the CD device to work you must have read permission on the /dev/cam  device.	As  superuser  you
       should: # chmod 644 /dev/cam

       You  will  need to have the permissions of your CD-ROM device changed to allow proper operation. In our example we will use /dev/rrz4c.	As
       superuser you should: # chmod 666 /dev/rdisk/dsk4c

       You can tell xcd where the CD-ROM drive is.  You can do this by either setting the environment variable CDROM to the device, or by starting
       xcd with the -cd option. For example:

	    # using the environment variable (csh)	% setenv CDROM /dev/rdisk/dsk4c      % xcd

	    # using the '-cd' option	  % xcd -cd /dev/rdisk/dsk4c

       Or you can let xcd figure out where the CD-ROM is.
