Package: cuetools (1.3.1-1)

tools for manipulating CUE/TOC files

cuetools is a set of programs that are useful for manipulating CUE sheet (cue) files and Table of Contents (toc) files. CUE and TOC files are a way to represent the layout of a data or audio CD in a machine-readable ASCII format. The package includes these utilities:

   - cueconvert: convert between CUE and TOC formats
   - cuebreakpoints: print the breakpoints from a CUE or TOC file
   - cueprint: print disc and track information for a CUE or TOC file

Probably the most popular use is to split a large audio file into many small files according to a CUE or TOC, for example:

cuebreakpoints disc.cue | shnsplit disc.wav
