.TH MULTICD 1 "Sep 3 2002"
.SH NAME
multicd \- program to backup your data to CD-R/CD-RW
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B multicd
.RI [ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B multicd
command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
.PP
\fBmulticd\fP is a program that provides an easy way to backup a large number 
of files to multiple CDs. Give multicd the files/directories you want backed
up and it will create as many CDs as it needs to, prompting the user to put
in a new disc whenever needed. It can be configured to run in a
multi-threading mode, where it will burn one image to a disc while it is
copying files to another image. This feature can be disabled for slower
machines.
.PP
As minimum requirement to run multicd you have to modify /etc/multicdrc or
copy it to ~/.multicdrc, and customise the settings to your needs.
.SH OPTIONS
For more assistance see the comments in /etc/multicdrc.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR cdrecord (1).
