WorkBone is a minimalistic CD player software that operates via num-lock keys. It comes with a curses-based interface and is easy-to-use.
One of the best things about WorkBone is that it uses the numeric keypad as a control panel. This means that you can easily move from track to track, play, stop, pause, and resume playing your audio CDs. The running times are also continuously updated and displayed, making it even easier for you to keep track of the time.
To use WorkBone, it is important to ensure that your NUM LOCK is engaged. A template is displayed to guide you, and if you ever need help, simply push the DEL key on the numeric pad to bring up a help screen.
In terms of requirements, WorkBone needs a few things to work properly. You will need libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4) [not alpha, ia64], libc6.1 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4) [alpha, ia64], libgcc1 (>= 1:3.4.1-3) [mips, mipsel], and cdtool.
If you're wondering what's new in this release, there are a few things to note. First, there are compatibility fixes to run with glibc 2.x. Additionally, there is a new switch -p to play tracks from the shell and a new switch -d to change the CD-ROM device.
Overall, WorkBone is a fantastic software that is perfect for anyone looking for a simple and easy-to-use CD player. With its intuitive controls and continuous updates of running times, you'll be able to enjoy your audio CDs with ease.
