[9fans] cd ripper

[john]

At Ron's request, I've whipped together a pair of rc scripts to do
audio CD ripping. 'cdripper' will sit and watch your CD drive; when
you insert a disc, it copies the audio tracks /tmp/cdtracks, gets
the cddb info for the disc, and calls cdprep. 'cdprep' then takes
the output of cddb and encodes the audio tracks to mp3 files in
/lib/music/<artist>/<album>
The code is in /n/sources/contrib/john
Send questions to me, complaints about inflexibility to /dev/null ;)

Ok, so I spoke too soon... now that I finally have sound working
again I've tried playing some of the mp3's generated and found
that they're just noise... I'll figure this out ASAP and get the
fixed code up.

That seems to be the problem; using dd -conv swab seems to have
fixed it. Updated cdprep is up.
