🌸 NAME 🌸

cdck — bestie's very own simple CD/DVD check program 💿✨ (that's cdck(1) to the man-page girlies, iykyk)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

cdck [-d /dev/devname] [-i] [-t] [-v] [-p] [-o plot-file.dat]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so real talk, here's the whole vibe of every flag you can throw at this thing 👇

  • -d — the CD/DVD device name, duh 💿 default is /dev/cdrom (she's the default for a reason, no cap)
  • -i — print CD/DVD info and then dip, no timings at all. this is the default mode, she's just nosy, not patient 🎀
  • -t — perform the timing test ⏱️
🚨 note bestie: this option will not work for audio CDs. not a single one. don't come for me, it's just how it is 💀
  • -p — save the data for the gnuplot(1) program 📊✨
  • -o — specify the plot file, ./cdck-plot.dat is the default (iconic, honestly)
  • -V — print version 👑
  • -v — verbose operations, aka she tells you everything she's doing 🗣️

to actually plot your data you have to start gnuplot and plot the datafile, like so:

$ gnuplot
gnuplot> plot "cdck-plot.dat"

and then your data is served 💅
