NAME

XMdb - X data base editor for XPlaycd cd databases.

SYNOPSIS

xmdb [ -display <display> ] [ -fn <font> ] [ -root <path> ]

DESCRIPTION

XMdb is an X-based program to maintain and edit databases created from within XPlaycd. It presents you with a list of all medias currently in the database and lets you pick one for editing. You may create/delete new cathegories and move items around. XPlaycd uses XMdb to add new entries to the database.

OPTIONS

Options offered by XMdb are the following:
-display <display>
Show the control window on the given display.
-fn <font>
Use this font rather than the default. The given font should be about the same size like the default font. If not, the window may look ugly.
-root <path>
Use path as base for the cd database, overriding the *cddb resource.

RESOURCES

XMdb understands a large number of X11 resources which are listed below. These system wide resources usually sit in a file called /etc/X11/app-defaults/XMdb. Personal resources reside either in ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources depending on your installation. To put an XMdb resource into your personal resource file, prefix it with the word xmdb. After editing your personal file, be sure to run xrdb ~/.Xresources or xrdb ~/.Xdefaults to make them work. There is no need for a prefix or an invocation of xrdb if you change the system wide file.

STANDARD RESOURCES

Standard X11 resources with their defaults are shown here. For an explanation of the standard resources please see the X11 dcumentation.
