I don't have that, but maybe we're lucky, and borrow those specs from some
other program, see below.

Xcdroast's homepage is at
http://www.fh-muenchen.de/home/ze/rz/services/projects/xcdroast/e_overview.html,
you can download the code from there. I haven't looked into it (yet).

I don't know of what relevance it is, but there's also a set of programs for
Solaris (ewww ;), including a tool for reading audio-CDs and writing images,
located at ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord/. (There's one or two
additional drivers needed, available at the same site, please read the README).
Having some Solaris/sparc boxes here, i'll probably try out this one first, as
soon as i find some time.

So much about dragging together information... :)
