Hello,

Actually, I did come across that man page in my search.  This utility
seems to have more to do with recording CD's than extracting images from
them.  I already use cdrecord for all of my CD burning needs.  I just need
a way to take a CD that already has data on it and extract that data as an
ISO-9660 image that I can store on my hard disk.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.  If you know how to do what I'm
asking, I'd be greatful for another pointer....
