PeasyDisc is a collection of basic CD/DVD tools in one little package. Users may prefer to use its one-click ISO burning feature instead of the old burniso2cd program. Look for PeasyDisc in the Multimedia menu.

Very neat and tidy! I've been using it. Surprised that not more interest is being shown.

Peasydisc is basic. One needs to understand the basic operations but feels he really knows what's going on.

The gui is very compact but might be a bit clearer. One is looking simutaneously at the buttons for several different operation choices, of which only one is being used, the others distracting. Perhaps we could have a row of tabs across the top for each of the uncluttered operation choices. Say, blank, burn iso, data dvd, make iso, audio? There could be a mini help (couple of sentences) on each of these tab selected pages.

About the CD ripper. Simple and direct. Put your mp3s where you like. Play them with Gnome-mplayer.

As always I admire your elegant and efficient work and the assistance you offer.

Edit: One question. When it's processing and one sees the white moving screen it seems to me rather small with a poorly legible font; is there a way to improve this? I poked around in /root/.Xdefaults but got nowhere. This presentation is apparently acceptable elswhere. Or maybe it's my box.

Point taken. There is also a problem with the main window not fitting on small screens. So I am going to split it into Basic and Advanced sections, along with the current Audio section.

PeasyDisc v1.2 is posted above. The main window has been split into smaller Basic and Advanced sections.

That window has the same display properties as if you open a terminal from your desktop. I have never tried to change the font in Xdefaults.

The only important thing you need to read in the window is "Press Enter" when it's done processing.

That's a nice surprise this morning. I continue to use and like this minimalist program. Have just installed v.1.2

And about my remark on the terminal screen: Of course, don't know what I was thinking. I had meant to retract that.

Nice program. I'm using this in preference to previous Puppy CD/DVD burning options. Also nicely written and organised code again - very readable.
