plcd v1.0b           **beta version**

this program is supposed to work.  But I hate typing docs.. so I'll just give 
you the basics.  

plcd s             will stop a cd
plcd p             will pause/unpause a cd
plcd 1             will play track 1 of a cd
plcd 2              "    "     "   2 "  " "
plcd 1 2 3 5        "    "     "   1 2 3 5 of a cd 
plcd 1 r 3 2       will play the tracks specified, but the second track 
                   will be a random pick.
plcd a3            will play song 3 and up
plcd a1            will play the entire CD. 
plcd ar            will play random tracks until you kill the player
plcd V             returns copyright notice, and a version.  

Without options the program should display a help screen similar to the help 
you just received.  

Installing:  if you made it this far, your a better man than most.. therefore, 
I will let you cheat.  Type "make new" to build the program.  Its only 1
file.  Install it where you like.  

This program was influenced by workbone and playcd, 
but most of the code is my own. 
both programs are GPL'd and available at:
     sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/sound/cds


if you have any questions, suggestions:    
   
   or you just want to say hi, my email address is bdrake@cc.memphis.edu, but
   that is currently broken, (and its not under my name anyway).  My temporary
   address is "whois@imcom.com."  If you would really like to talk to me.. 
   about linux or something, then stop by irc.linpeople.org and join one of
   the channels.. I'm usually on at least once a day.
