Because that front end for CDRecord installs a new set of WPS classes on my system.
And I'll go there eventually. First, however, I have three (3) issues I want to solve/verify:

1. I have a new DVD/CD read/write unit on my system. And I've never
verified that I can actually write to disks on that unit. I tried and failed, using RSJ. I don't
want to obscure any problems by first installing Audio/Data CD and then finding out that
something does not work!

2. I want to learn the commandline methods as a backup to using the
Audio/Data CD GUI

3. bootAble does not use a GUI. It uses the commandline. I want to know
how bootAble works with CDRecord.

After all of the above, I'll probably install the Audio/Data CD GUI. And I'll probably write
a set of REXX scripts with a VisProREXX GUI to replicate (somewhat) the capability of
Audio/Data CD. That should be easy to do.

Finally, I hope that the RSJ folks will come through and get version 6.00 working for me. I
plan to have a set of bootAble scripts that will work with RSJ and with CDRecord.
