NAME

       CD5 - Compute checksum of individual track on CD-ROMS

SYNOPSIS

       cd5

DESCRIPTION

       CD-ROM  Digest  is  a program that checks a multi-track CD-ROM.  It reports the MD5 digest
       and size for each track on a CD-ROM.  The digest is done as the  track  is  read,  without
       dumping  CD-ROM  data  on  the hard drive. This tool helps users that are burning a multi-
       track CD-ROM to check the result.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

       Currently, cd5 uses /dev/cdrom as CD-ROM device, and you can't change it.

       Tracks are often bigger than the data written inside.  The program will report an error at
       the end of the data, but the checksum and the size will be good.
