Readme for discid A C Program to Compute CDDB discids on Linux and FreeBSD Copyright (c) 1999-2001, Jeremy D. Zawodny BACKGROUND This is the README file for discid. The discid home page is located at: http://family.zawodny.com/jzawodn/c/discid/ There may be bugs in the code as well as in the documentation. If you find either, I'd appreciate a patch or at least a mail message to let me know what's wrong. discid has been developed and tested on Linux and FreeBSD. It may work on other platforms with modification, but I don't know. If you install it on another platform, I'd like to hear about it. If you develop patches for that platform, I'd REALLY like to hear about it. Send me a note. There's nothing that I know to be platform-dependent in here yet, but you never know. REQUIREMENTS The following stuff is required to make this really work: * gcc * a CD-ROM Drive * a Music CD INSTALLATION Installing discid is an easy process. Just download the discid.c and Makefile. Then: % make % cp discid ~/bin DOCUMENTATION This is the only documentation so far. CREDITS Joerg Hevers pointed out a bug in the disc length calculation.
