wm2xmcd - workman-to-xmcd CD database file converter
wm2xmcd [-v n] [-d outdir] [-c] workmandb ...
Similar in
function to xmcd, workman is a CD audio player utility for the X window
system, but uses the XView/Open Look interface. Wm2xmcd is a simple program
that converts workman CD database files to the xmcd format. A specified
workman CD database file is used as input and Xmcd CD database files are
generated.
Wm2xmcd supports the following options:
- -v n
- Specifies
level of verbosity of output diagnostics. Currently the levels 0 through
3 are supported. Level 0 is the "quietest" whereas level 3 generates lots
of messages.
- -d outdir
- Specifies the output directory. The default is cddb
under the current directory. If the -c option is also specified, then subdirectories
under outdir will be created.
- -c
- With this option, wm2xmcd will prompt the
user to type a category name for each CD entry to be converted. Each category
will be a subdirectory under the output directory.
Workman uses a
complex multi-line track title description scheme, whereas xmcd uses a simple
list of single-line titles. Xmcd has flexible free-form text fields associated
with the CD as well as each track. Wm2xmcd currently expands the multi-line
workman track entries into a format that fits the xmcd list, but does not
use the free-form text fields.
Some workman database keywords are ignored
by this utility, notably those that correspond to workman features that
are irrelevant in xmcd.
