CCCD(1)

💿 CCCD(1) — the general commands manual, but make it cute 💿

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about cccd — it lives in section 1 of the General Commands Manual and it is yet another CD player with CDDB support. yes, "yet another." iconic of it honestly. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

cccd — yet another CD player with CDDB support. no cap. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cccd

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she takes no arguments, she needs no arguments, she's that girl. 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so cccd is a small GTK+ CD player program and she comes with many features, which, slay:

• Works with SCSI devices 🔥
• CDDB lookups (local and remote) and local storing 💾
• Uses very little screen space (she's compact, she's mindful, she respects your desktop) 🫶
• Handles CD Extras (mixed mode CDs) 🌈

---

💜 OPTIONS 💜

None.

literally none. zero. she woke up and chose simplicity. periodt. ✨

---

🎀 USAGE 🎀

the moment you start cccd, two windows pop up: a smaller control panel and a status window. two windows. main character energy, honestly. 👑

🎛️ The Control Panel

this is where the buttons for controlling the CD drive live, and this is where the main action is gonna take place. the left most button is the exit button, and clicking it will cause cccd to quit. the right most button will cause the Info window (q.v.) to pop up.

buttons in the top row, left to right: Previous Track, Play, Next Track. and in the bottom row: Pause, Stop, Eject.

their functions should be self-explanatory, bestie. iykyk. 💅

📊 The Status Window

you will see four rows of text here, and a progress bar below that.

• the top most row shows the Artist and Title of the CD, if known 🎤
• below that is the track title 🎵
• then comes the time display ⏱️
• and then a status row 📝

you can toggle the time display between

• CD time passed
• CD time remaining,
• Track time passed,
• Track time remaining

by clicking on the window above the progress bar. yes, clicking. she's tactile. ✨

the status information will show the current status and the play mode. you can toggle the playmodes (Normal, Loop Track, Loop CD, Random) by clicking on the progress bar.

the progress bar will always show the elapsed CD time. always. no exceptions. 💖

📖 The Info Window

this window is divided into two sections:

💿 CD

here you can see (and later enter) the CD title and Artist, followed by a list of the Track titles.

below this there are buttons that (will) allow you to:

• Save the current CD data
• submit it to a remote CDDB database
• Undo any changes you have made since the last saving

you can realize a playlist of the tracks you want to hear by clicking on the track row. darker tracks will not be played. 🚫🎵

(Note: Data tracks will be 'unselected' automatically).

🗄️ CDDB

you can enter the relevant data for remote and local cddb databases here, and the lookup order. 🔍

if the remote databases lookup protocol is http, you will need to enter the URL in addition to the hostname, without the leading "http://", e.g. "example.url.com/cddb/database/lookup.cgi".

the category section is not used, and will be omitted in future versions. 👀

"Save" will save the info to "~/.cccdrc". and i'll leave to your imagination what Undo does. 🙈✨
