- <P>
- Xmcd is CD Player utility package including xmcd, a CD Player for the X window
- system using the Motif graphical user interface and cda, a command-line driven,
- text mode CD Player which also features a curses-based, screen-oriented mode.
- Both utilities transform your CD-ROM or CD-R drive into a stereo CD player,
- allowing you to play music CDs on your computer.
- <P>
- These CD player utilities are designed to be attractive, feature-rich yet intuitive to
- use, and takes advantage of many CD-ROM drive capabilities that are not accessible
- via other players. Moreover, a CD database feature is supported, maintaining the disc
- artist/title, track titles, and arbitrary text (such as band information and song lyrics).
- <P>
- Xmcd and cda have emerged as the most ported CD player package, supporting a
- substantial list of UNIX operating system variants (as well as a non-UNIX OS) and
- hardware platforms. Moreover, these utilities also support a vast spectrum of
- CD-ROM and CD-R drives, including many older SCSI-1 units.
