DESCRIPTIONunieject is a simple commandline tool that allows to eject, close the
tray, set the speed, lock and unlock a CD-Rom drive. The main
difference from the usual eject tool you find in many distributions is
that it uses libcdio and its then portable on non-Linux operating
system, as far as libcdio is ported, too.
ACTIONS
The default action is, of course, to eject the CD in the drive, but
there are a few extra actions that are present, mainly for
compatibility with classic eject command.
--trayclose, -t
Close the tray of the drive instead of ejecting the CD in it.
--traytoggle, -T
If the tray is closed, eject, if it´s open, close the tray. This
function relies on the drive being able to provide the tray
information.
--speed speed, -x speed
Set the maximum speed for the CD-Rom drive, if applicable.
--lock, -l, --unlock, -L
Allows to lock or unlock the tray of the CD-Rom drive to disable
and then re-enable the manual eject by button.
COMMON OPTIONS--noop, -n
Don´t actually do anything, just print what it would have been done
to execute the required command.
--verbose, -V
Show more information while executing the command (increase
verbosity).
--quiet, -Q
Hides error while executing the command (decrease verbosity).
--ignore-caps
Ignore the capabilities stated by the device to eject, and try to
run the command anyway, useful if a device is known not to report
them correctly. On FreeBSD systems this is forced while using ioctl
access.
--no-ignore-caps
Don´t ignore the capabilities stated by the device (this is the
default behavior, this option is used to override unieject.conf(5)
file).
--accessmode mode
Change the default access mode for the command. This is used to
override the default access mode imposed by libcdio in case it
doesn´t work correctly. Leave the default if you don´t know how to
change this.
--debugcdio level
Sets the debug level for libcdio information messages. 0 means the
most debug output is generated.
EJECTION OPTIONS--no-unmount, -m
Don´t unmount the device if it´s mounted (eject will fail if the
device is mounted).
--unmount, -u
Unmount the device if it´s mounted (this is the default behavior,
this option is used to override unieject.conf(5) file).
--force, -f
Force unmounting of the device if it´s mounted, this works only if
the operating system supports it.
--no-force
Don´t force unmounting of device (this is the default behavior,
this option is used to override unieject.conf(5) file).
--umount-wrapper wrapper, -W wrapper
Use the given wrapper to unmount the device instead of library´s
functions. The device name will be passed right after the wrapper.
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variables changes the behavior of unieject.
EJECT
Used for compatibility with FreeBSD´s eject command; when it´s set
the default device to eject is take from there instead of libcdio
defaults.
