Version: 1.3

MakeCD is a program to create Amiga CD-ROM images (including Amiga
Protection Bits and Amiga File Comments, and of course Rock Ridge
Extensions) and to write CD-Rs.
This is the feature list of MakeCD:
* Amiga protection bits und file comments in CD-ROM Images.
* Online images (second partition not required)
* Very flexible CD copying
* Supports ISO 9660 and Rock Ridge extensions
* Relativly few memory requirement while generating ISO 9660
structures.
* Supports CDTV and CD32 (bootable CD-ROM's possible)
* All source directory trees for the ISO image are optionally
put into one distinct subdirectory each in the root of the
image.
* Locale support (at this time English and German)
* Online Help (Bubblehelp, can be disabled)
* Font sensitive layout
* Style Guide adhering (opens e.g. on a Public Screen)
* Easy to use
* Extra processes to read/write data. These processes can't
be stopped by GUI (e.g. menu selection)
* Reads and writes all kinds of tracks
* Supports MFS & LFS audio format
* Modular (other CD-Writers can be added as needed)
* Compatible (tested on many different configurations)
* Unbeaten low price (for private users)
Currently, the following drives are supported:
* Philips CDD 2000 (Plasmon CDR4220, HP SureStore 4020i,
Grundig CDR1001PW, Philips CDD521/522)
* Yamaha CDR 100/102 (Smart & Friendly CDR1004)
* Philips CDD 2600 (beta)
* Plextor PX-R24CS(i)
* Toshiba CD-ROM (with CDDA reading)
* Sony CD-ROM (with CDDA reading)
* NEC CD-ROM (with CDDA reading)
* Pioneer CD-ROM (Sony compatible)
* Plextor CD-ROM (Sony compatible)
* any other CD-ROM drive (without CDDA reading)
History Release 1.3:
--------------------
- New: Plextor PX-R24CS(i) CD writer
- Bugfix: MakeCD crashed cleaning up after image creation if one source path
(but not the first one) was invalid.
- Bugfix: Path prefixes work correctly now.
- Bugfix: Using ExAll() for directory scanning skipped files in some
directories.
- When writing an image file to a CrossDos partition the file was always
deleted afterwards because CrossDos reports a filesize of zero. Now
MakeCD uses another function which works with CrossDos, too.
Have a look at our MakeCD support page:

MakeCD Mailing Lists
--------------------
There are three different mailing lists for MakeCD:
ml-makecd@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de
For discussions with other users of MakeCD. The authors of MakeCD will
read this list, too, so they can answer questions if noone else is able
to answer. Sometimes they will ask you what you think about a new
feature etc.
ml-makecd-announce@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de
No discussions, only announces from the authors. For example we will
announce new versions and new drivers on this list.
ml-makecd-binaries@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de
This list brings all new MakeCD binaries directly into your mailbox.
It is useful if you do not have access to ftp servers or homepages in
the internet, and so are unable to download new MakeCD archives.
To subscribe, send "SUBSCRIBE user@host" to
listname-request@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de,
where listname is the name of the mailing list, e.g. "ml-makecd-announce".
Don't send requests to the lists themselves! To subscribe the email address
"user@my.email.address" to the announce list, send the following message:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
To: ml-makecd-announce-request@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de
Subject: Anything
SUBSCRIBE user@my.email.address
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
To unsubscribe, send a similar message, but replace "SUBSCRIBE" by
"UNSUBSCRIBE".
Send the following message to get further instructions:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
To: listserv@unix-ag.uni-siegen.de
Subject: Anything
HELP

We hope you have a lot of fun with our software!
Note on Distribution: NoCD
--------------------------
We decided to add this line, because Aminet has suspended freebies for
authors (you now have to pay 5 to 15 DM for a so-called "freebie").
Meeting Pearls IV CD costs only 3/5 (14.95 DM) of an Aminet CD (25 DM)
and offers freebies (including shipping costs) for all authors (see
"http://home.pages.de/~MP/"). So Meeting Pearls IV proofes that there
cannot be financial reasons to suspend freebies. If you want to include
this program an any CD other than Aminet and have a better freebie policy
(or if your CDs are cheaper than Aminet), feel free to contact us.
