yes, that all makes sense and is stuff i'm already aware of. what
i'm wondering about is making more human-readable reports of the CD

manufacturers ask for this, and a lot of mastering software on other
platforms have facilities to generate such things. to be sure, it's
not a big deal to put it together by hand, from the CUE or TOC, but it
just seems like one more thing which could (i.e. should?) be
automated. :)
I don't know of any apps that are already there, but this is what
perl was made for, parsing one file and creating another with just
the
details required in a different format. I can't imagine any linux
distro that does not have perl already installed.
I know, not the answer you wanted, but the best I can think of.
yeah, that's what i've been thinking... or even sed, perhaps.
as an aside, i've always thought it's a bit silly that the
manufacturers want something "pretty" to look at, since all the
details are encoded on the burned CD anyways, but i guess sometimes
they double-check these things...
Accounting folk can't read TOC?
;)
cheers!
