NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     cddbcvt - convert old (cdplayer) format CD	database to new	format

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     cddbcvt [ olddbfile [ newdbdir ] ]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     cddbcvt takes a database file in the old format used by pre-4.0.5
     versions of cdplayer, and converts	them to	a CD database directory, as
     used by CDman and later versions of cdplayer.

     The optional argument olddbfile is	the name of the	database file you wish
     to	convert. By default this is .cdplayerrc	in the user's home directory.

     The optional argument newdbdir is the name	of the directory in which to
     put the new database files. The directory will be created if it does not
     already exist. By default,	this directory is .cddb	in the user's home
     directory.	This argument may only be supplied if the olddbfile argument
     is	also provided.

     The new database need not be empty. If any	converted database entries
     match entries which already exist in the new database, the	entries	will
     be	left unmodified.
