WISH CD-Writer

WISH CD-Writer 2009 is a simple program for CD writing and rewriting on Linux and other Unix-type operating systems. It requires at least Tcl and Tk 8.5, as well as three commonly available free programs: "mkisofs" to create CD images, "cdrecord" to blank CD-RWs or write data CDs, and "cdrdao" to write audio CDs. If you want WISH CD-Writer to convert MIDI files to WAV files, which in turn can be converted to tracks on an audio CD, you'll need yet another commonly available free program, "TiMidity++." Unlike many graphical front ends to mkisofs, cdrecord, and cdrdao, WISH CD-Writer is not intended to give the user access to as many CD-writing options as possible. It is intended to present computer users with as *few* difficult options as possible, while being as useful as possible for common purposes such as:

• copying data CDs (including bootable CDs);
• creating ("mastering") new data CDs for copying and distribution;
• backing up files on CDs;
• producing audio CDs from MIDI, WAV, or "raw audio" files.

WISH CD-Writer 2009 is available in a "tar.gz" package including the program, documentation, and a simple installation script for Linux/Unix operating systems, as well as a .PET package ready for single-click installation in Puppy Linux.
