converts CUE files to cdrdao's TOC format

CUE files are text files describing the layout of a CD-ROM and typically carry the extension ".cue". cdrdao and cdrecord, the two CD recording programs for Linux systems, cannot read these files. This program converts CUE files into the TOC format that cdrdao can understand. It also features automatic data format conversion (e.g., MP3 to WAV) before burning; the exact action taken is determined by the file extensions and the user's configuration.

cdrdao

records CDs in Disk-At-Once (DAO) mode

cdrdao records audio or data CD-Rs in disk-at-once (DAO) mode based on a textual description of the CD contents. Recording in disk-at-once mode writes the complete disc, i.e. lead-in, one or more tracks and lead-out, in a single step. The commonly used track-at-once (TAO) mode writes each track independently which requires link blocks between two tracks. You probably want to use this if you're copying a CD with multiple tracks, like most audio CDs. cdrdao can also handle the bin/cue format commonly used for VCDs or disks with subchannel data. If you just want to burn a normal data CD, you probably want wodim instead.
