ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       CDDA_DEVICE   Reserved or later :)
       CDROM	     Try this cdrom as default (if unset, CDROM_DEFAULT
		     from params.h is used).
       CDDB_PATH     path to your local cddb files (if unset, _no_ cddb titelinfo
		     is displayed)
       CDDB_SERVER   IP:PORT of a freedb server (if unset, only local cddb
		     stuff is used, if it exists in $CDDB_PATH/$discid).
       LOGNAME	     Is used for remote cddb login.
       HOSTNAME      Is used for remote cddb login too.

FILES

       $HOME/.workmandb   Is used (first) for reading wmdb entries.
       $CDDB_PATH/*	  Is used for reeading/writing cddb entries.

RETURN VALUES

       0    no errors occured / normal quit
       1    the given cd-device isn't a cd-device
       2    your cd seems to be sth. other then a CD-Audio or CD-Mixed
       3    some error while processing terminal code

NOTES

       Some  terminals	don't like the default escape-sequences from params.h ... if so, you have to edit them ! Successfully tested terminals are
       vt100, linux, xterm, xterm-color.

       If you haven't direct access to a freedb server, you may use some port redirector program ... see freshmeat.

       If you have devfs, mcdp will try /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, else /dev/cdrom is tried!
