190 # NOTICE: OUTPUTTYPE has been deprecated in the OUTPUTFORMAT string.

228 # * Translate colons to a space and a dash for Windows compatibility
229 # * Eat control characters, single quotes, and question marks
230 # * Translate spaces and forward slashes to underscores
231 # * Translate stars into pluses.
232 # To change that, redefine the mungefilename function.
233 # mungefilename recieves the CDDB data (artist, track, title, whatever)
234 # as $1 and outputs it on stdout.
237 # echo "$@" | sed s,:,\ -,g | tr \ /\* __+ | tr -d \'\"\?\[:cntrl:\]
240 # Custom genre munging:
241 # By default we just transform uppercase to lowercase. Not much of a fancy
242 # function, with not much use, but one can disable it ot just turn the first
246 # echo $CDGENRE | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]"
250 # Custom pre-read function
251 # By default it does nothing.
252 # You can set some things to get abcde funtion in better ways:
253 # * Close the CD tray using eject -t (if available in eject and supported by
255 # * Set the CD speed. You can also use the built-in options, but you can also
256 # set it here. In Debian, eject -x and cdset -x do the job.
257 # KEEP IN MIND that executables included in pre_read must be in your $PATH or
258 # you have to define them with full /path/to/binary
264 # If you'd like to have abcde eject the cdrom after all the tracks have been
265 # read, uncomment the following line.
