cdctrl  command  is  a  program  that opens a CDROM device and may be used for interactive control of the
       CDROM including play starting at a track, next track, previous track, stop, pause, display info,  display
       CDROM  status,  and  display  CDROM  directory.  This program may be used as a daemon to control an audio
       CDROM device.

       The commands to the cdctrl command are:

              device Open CDROM device.

              -V     Print out version and build information.

              -h     Display help.

              -v     Display help.

              -D     Enable runtime debugging.

              -c     Output CR-LF at end of each line, not LF.

       By default, cdctrl opens /dev/cdrom, but does not start playing.  Output is to standard output with  each
       line terminated by a linefeed (LF).

       Commands to cdctrl are:

              1      Play first track, start playing.

              s      Stop playing.

              p      Pause playing.

              r      Resume playing.

              e      Eject CDROM.

              c      Close CDROM tray.

              i      Display info string.

              d      Display directory.

              -      Play previous track.

              +      Play next track.  When on last track, play first track.

              [1..99]
                     Play track 1..99.

              ?      Display help screen.

              q      Quit.

       Each  command  results in one or multiple lines of output to stdout, followed by an info string, followed
       by END.

       The format of the info string is:

       CMDcmd-namecd-statustrackabs-timerel-time

         cmd-name  := {play, stop, ... quit} from above list
         cd-status := {invalid, play, paused}
         cd-status += {completed, error, no_status}
         track     := {1..99} CD track
         abs-time  := HH:MM:SS elapsed since CD start
         rel-time  := HH:MM:SS elapsed since track start
