<h1>cdrkit - portable command-line CD/DVD recorder software</h1>

<p>This is a little web page for the
<a href="http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debburn">cdrkit</a>
project. If you want to see more here - feel free to join and help.

<i>cdrkit</i> is a suite of programs for recording CDs and DVDs,
blanking CD-RW media, creating ISO-9660 filesystem images, extracting
audio CD data, and more.  The programs included in the cdrkit package
were originally derived from several sources, most notably
<i>mkisofs</i> by Eric Youngdale and others, <i>cdda2wav</i> by Heiko
Eissfeldt, and <i>cdrecord</i> by J&ouml;rg Schilling.  However,
cdrkit is <i>not affiliated</i> with any of these authors; it is now an
independent project.</p>

<p>cdrkit, like the programs from which it was derived, is distributed
as <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html">free
software</a> under the terms of the
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html">GNU GPL version 2</a>.
<i>(Note, this is not "version 2 or later" as you see in many software
projects.)</i></p>

<h2>Compatibility</h2>

<p>Derived from the various programs distributed in the <i>cdrtools</i>
suite, cdrkit aims to maintain interface compatibility with those
tools.  The <i>cdrecord</i> program has been renamed to <i>wodim</i>
("write optical disk media") so that users will not confuse it with the
original cdrecord, which is still maintained by its author, J&ouml;rg
Schilling.  wodim, and the other programs distributed with cdrkit, will
retain a user interface compatible with the corresponding programs from
the <i>cdrtools 2.01.01a08</i> release, at least for the near future.
Thus, front-end programs, such as GUI-based CD writer applications,
should be able to use cdrkit merely by substituting the name "wodim"
for the name "cdrecord".</p>
