actually, cdrecord has been made available for dos, and blu-ray is
starting to become available in cdrecord. don't know about the dos
version yet. http://perotti.ic.cz/cdrecord/
but I still have an issue with DJGPP 4.6.2 because there is no STL. I
just looked for the file vector in the include directory tree as in
#include <vector> and it's not there! so are also a lot of anything C+
