There is a nice EXAMPLE section... This will sound quite lame.... I looked for a growisofs man page and got the report back that there was none. A while later I though to run growisofs --help and found very little there. In between those two acts (about 15-20 minutes) an emerge -v dvd+rw-tools was running in the background part of that time. Apparently I tried for the man page too soon but by the time I thought to try --help the emerge apparently had finished. Anyway I was operating under the notion that growisofs had no man page until rechecking on the strength of your post. You are right, there is a lot to work with in there. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
