Today I tried to burn an audio CD. This may actually be the first
time I ever did this.
I'm sure there are all kinds of GUIey tools, but I took the simple
route: expanded a few high-quality MP3s to raw PCM with mpg123,
then put a CD-R in the drive and burned it with
burncd -f /dev/acd0 -d audi

It's written in portable C. It requires threads, but you don't
have to worry about porting a Modula-3 compiler and runtime environment

FreeBSD's whois(1) does not have a -v flag. I checked a Mandrake
