.BR abcde
is designed to automate this. It will take an entire CD and convert it into
a compressed audio format - Ogg/Vorbis, MPEG Audio Layer III, Free Lossless
-Audio Codec (FLAC), Ogg/Speex, MPP/MP+(Musepack) and/or M4A (AAC) format(s).
+Audio Codec (FLAC), Ogg/Speex, MPP/MP+(Musepack), M4A (AAC) or Opus format(s).
With one command, it will:

.B \-o [filetype][:filetypeoptions]
Select output type. Can be "vorbis" (or "ogg"), "mp3", "flac", "spx", "mpc",
-"m4a" or "wav". Specify a comma-delimited list of output types to obtain all
-specified types. See the OUTPUTTYPE configuration variable. One can pass
+"m4a", "wav" or "opus". Specify a comma-delimited list of output types to obtain
+all specified types. See the OUTPUTTYPE configuration variable. One can pass
options to the encoder for a specific filetype on the command line separating
them with a colon. The options must be escaped with double-quotes.
.TP
will process the entire CD. Accepts ranges of track numbers -
"abcde 1-5 7 9" will process tracks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 9.
.SH OUTPUT
-Each track is, by default, placed in a separate file named after the track
-in a subdirectory named after the artist under the current directory.
-This can be modified using the OUTPUTFORMAT and VAOUTPUTFORMAT
-variables in your \fIabcde.conf\fR. Each file is given an extension identifying
-its compression format, 'vorbis' for '.ogg', '.mp3', '.flac', '.spx', '.mpc', '.aac' or '.wav'.

.SH CONFIGURATION
\fBabcde\fR sources two configuration files on startup - \fI/etc/abcde.conf\fR and
\fI$HOME/.abcde.conf\fR, in that order.

.B AACENCODERSYNTAX
-Specifies the style of encoder to use for M4A (AAC) encoder. At this point we
-only support \'faac\', so \'default\' points to it.
+Specifies the style of encoder to use for M4A (AAC) encoder. We support \'faac\'
+as \'default\' but support is there for neroAacEnc as well.
+.TP
+.B OPUSENCODERSYNTAX
+Specifies the style of encoder to use for the Opus encoder. At this point only
+\'opusenc\' is available for Opus encoding.

.B NORMALIZERSYNTAX
Specifies the style of normalizer to use. Valid options are \'default\'
.B PATHNAMES
The following configuration file options specify the pathnames of their
respective utilities: LAME, TOOLAME, GOGO, BLADEENC, L3ENC, XINGMP3ENC, MP3ENC,
-VORBIZE, OGGENC, FLAC, SPEEXENC, MPCENC, AACEND, ID3, EYED3, EYED3, METAFLAC,

.B CDSPEEDVALUE
Specifies the encoding format to output, as well as the default extension and
encoder. Defaults to "vorbis". Valid settings are "vorbis" (or "ogg")
(Ogg/Vorbis), "mp3" (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III), "flac" (Free Lossless Audio
-Codec), "spx" (Ogg/Speex), "mpc" (MPP/MP+ (Musepack)), "m4a" (for M4A (AAC)) or
-"wav" (Microsoft Waveform). Values like "vorbis,mp3" encode the tracks in both
-Ogg/Vorbis and MP3 formats. For example
+Codec), "spx" (Ogg/Speex), "mpc" (MPP/MP+ (Musepack)), "m4a" (for M4A (AAC)),
+"wav" (Microsoft Waveform) or "opus" (Opus Interactive Audio Codec). Values
+like "vorbis,mp3" encode the tracks in both Ogg/Vorbis and MP3 formats. For example
