💿 CDDAINFO(1) — like, the Compact Disc Information era, but make it a manual page 🎀

okay bestie, sit down, we're reading a manual page together and it's genuinely fun. This one lives in section 1 of the Compact Disc Information manual (yes, that's the manual name, she's got range 💅).

✨ NAME ✨

cddainfo — prints information about a compact disc

No cap, that's the whole job. She looks at a disc and tells you things. Queen behavior. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cddainfo [OPTIONS]

That's it. That's the whole invocation. Gorgeous. Minimalist. Main character energy. 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the vibe: cddainfo takes a compact disc device and writes information about the current disc to standard output.

What kind of information, you ask? (You did ask, bestie, I heard you. 🫶)

  • the total number of tracks
  • the total length of the disc
  • the FreeDB disc ID
  • the MusicBrainz disc ID
  • the length/offset information of each track

Literally all of it. She's not gatekeeping. She's the friend who shares her notes. 📝✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -h, --help — shows you a list of options and then dips. exit, stage left. 👋
  • -c, --cdrom=CDROM — the CD-ROM device to read CD information from. Tell her which disc to go snooping on. 🔍💿
lowkey two options and both of them are perfect. it's giving efficiency.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay so she runs with a whole clique, and you should absolutely meet them all. fr fr, the friend group is stacked:

twenty-one besties. twenty-one. and every single one of them is a (1). iykyk. 💜
