If more arguments than expected are given, +.B ccd2iso +will silently ignore them and use only the first two arguments. + +IMG files are raw-data copies of optical media, generated primarily by the Windows +application CloneCD, and are primarily used to store CDs with odd properties, such +as sectors which need to have read errors when read. Conversion to ISO format removes +this information, as ISO format does not support this. + +IMG files almost always include a SUB file, which contains additional data for the disc format, +and a CCD file, which is a plaintext configuration file describing the disc layout. ccd2iso does not +make use of these files, but the applications which generate them expect them to have the same +.B FOO +prefix as the IMG file. +.SH LIMITATIONS +ccd2iso currently only copies the first session of multisession discs, as well as outputting a harmless warning of +.BR "Unrecognized sector mode" "." + +ccd2iso utterly ignores the additional data in CCD or SUB files. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "mdf2iso" "(1), " "nrg2iso" "(1)" +.SH AUTHOR +This manual page was written by Rich Ercolani <rercola@acm.jhu.edu>, for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution +(but it may, of course, be used by others), because the original program lacked a manual page.
