.TH WM2XMCD 1 "20 March 1999" "v2.5"

.SH "NAME"
wm2xmcd \- workman-to-xmcd CD database file converter

.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.B wm2xmcd
.nh
[-\fIv\fP n] [-\fId\fP outdir] [-\fIc\fP] \fIworkmandb\fP ...

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Similar in function to
.I xmcd,
.I workman
is a CD audio player utility for the X window system, but
uses the XView/Open Look interface.
.I Wm2xmcd
is a simple program that converts
.I workman
CD database files to the
.I xmcd
format.  A specified
.I workman
CD database file is used as input
and Xmcd CD database files are generated.

.SH "OPTIONS"
.I Wm2xmcd
supports the following options:
.TP
.I \-v\ n
Specifies level of verbosity of output diagnostics.  Currently the
levels 0 through 3 are supported.  Level 0 is the "quietest" whereas
level 3 generates lots of messages.
.TP
.I \-d\ outdir
Specifies the output directory.  The default is
.B cddb
under the current directory.  If the
.I \-c
option is also specified, then subdirectories under
.I outdir
will be created.
.TP
.I \-c
With this option,
.I wm2xmcd
will prompt the user to type a category name for each CD entry
to be converted.  Each category will be a subdirectory under the
output directory.

.SH "NOTES"
.I Workman
uses a complex multi-line track title description scheme,
whereas
.I xmcd
uses a simple list of single-line titles.  Xmcd has flexible
free-form text fields associated with the CD as well as each track.
.I Wm2xmcd
currently expands the multi-line
.I workman
track entries into
a format that fits the
.I xmcd
list, but does not use the free-form text fields.
.PP
Some
.I workman
database keywords are ignored by this utility, notably
those that correspond to
.I workman
features that are irrelevant in
.I xmcd.
