296 # * Translate colons to a space and a dash for Windows compatibility
297 # * Eat control characters, single quotes, and question marks
298 # * Translate spaces and forward slashes to underscores
299 # To change that, redefine the mungefilename function.
300 # mungefilename receives the CDDB data (artist, track, title, whatever)
301 # as $1 and outputs it on stdout.
304 # echo "$@" | sed s,:,\ -,g | tr \ / __ | tr -d \'\"\?\[:cntrl:\]
307 # Custom genre munging:
308 # By default we just transform uppercase to lowercase. Not much of a fancy
309 # function, with not much use, but one can disable it or just turn the first
313 # echo $CDGENRE | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]"
317 # Custom pre-read function
318 # By default it does nothing.
319 # You can set some things to get abcde function in better ways:
320 # * Close the CD tray using eject -t (if available in eject and supported by
322 # * Set the CD speed. You can also use the built-in options, but you can also
323 # set it here. In Debian, eject -x and cdset -x do the job.
324 # KEEP IN MIND that executables included in pre_read must be in your $PATH or
325 # you have to define them with full /path/to/binary
326 # Uncomment and substitute the ":" with your commands.
332 # Custom post-read function
