CDfs: 'CDfs' is a file system that 'exports' all tracks and boot images on a CD as normal files. These files can then be mounted (e.g. for ISO and boot images), copied, played (audio tracks), etc. Its main goal is to 'unlock' information in old ISO sessions. The file system also lets you access data on faulty multi session disks, e.g. disks with multiple single sessions instead of a multi session.

CDimgtools: CDimg tools is a set of command line tools to manipulate CD/DVD images of certain formats.

CYTHAR: CYTHAR is multi-platform, pattern-oriented, polyphonic MIDI step-sequencer, which makes its own path. 16 parallel patterns with six tracks and 16 bars -- equating to 256 bars and 96 tracks. The six pattern tracks imitate the strings of a guitar and will be tuned e.g. to “EAdgbe”. For example, you can set a guitar chord to a pattern tune and then by enabling a few events or triggers the sequencer will start a solo or plays with the chords. You can program drum sets, melodies, arpeggios and complete songs.

Cadencii: Cadencii is a multi-track piano roll editor. A synthesis backend, such as vConnect-STAND or EFB-GW-PL is needed.

Ccd2cue: The program ccd2cue is a CCD sheet to CUE sheet converter for the GNU Operating System. It supports the full extent of CUE sheet format expressiveness, including mixed-mode discs and CD-Text meta-data. It plays an important role for those who need to use optical disc data which is only available in the proprietary sheet format CCD, but don’t want to surrender their freedom. It fills an important gap in the free software world because before its conception it was impossible to use complex forms of optical disc data laid out by CCD sheets in a whole/holy free operating system.

Cdcd: cdcd is a CLI CD player designed to incorporate all the features of the X and curses based CD players without having to use a clunky push button interface or having a console hogged with a curses-based CD player. cdcd can accept commands directly from the command line, or in a query mode similar to telnet or ftp. CDDBP and HTTP mode CDDB support is inlcuded, and now CD Index support as well. cdcd also supports CD-ROM changers on GNU/Linux 2.1 or 2.2 systems. You can run cdcd with a command as the argument (eg cdcd play), which is a great way to use cdcd and cron together to make a CD alarm clock. If you run cdcd without arguments you will be given the cdcd command prompt.

Cdda2wav

Cdda2wav is a program recording audio tracks digitally (CDDA) from compact disc drives or burners into wav files, making possible lossless copies of audio tracks. It is currently distributed as part of the 'cdrtools' package. Features include:

can extract title information from CD Extra and CD-Text discs (with appropriate hardware)
can calculate CDDB disc id for title lookups in the internet

Cdparanoia: Cdparanoia is a Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA) extraction tool, commonly known as a 'ripper'. It is built on top of the Paranoia library (included in the cdparanoia source distribution). The cdparanoia package reads audio from the CDROM directly as data, with no analog step between, and writes the data to a file or pipe in WAV, AIFC or raw 16 bit linear PCM. 'cdparanoia' contains few-to-no 'extra' features; it concentrates on the ripping process and knowing as much as possible about the hardware performing it. Cdparanoia will read correct audio data from inexpensive drives prone to misalignment, frame jitter and loss of streaming during atomic reads, and can read and repair data from damaged CDs. It has no compile time configuration, and will autodetect the CDROM, its type, its interface and other aspects of the ripping process at runtime.

Cdrdao: 'cdrdao' creates audio or mixed mode CD-Rs in disk-at-once (DAO) mode driven by a description file. In DAO mode, users can create non standard track pre-gaps with lengths other than 2 seconds and contain nonzero audio data. This lets users divide live recordings into tracks where 2 second gaps would be irritating and create hidden tracks or track intros as found on commercial CDs.

Cdrom: Cdrom is a small/lightweight CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive controlling utility. It supports several features like automatic mounting/unmounting (if needed), speed control, drive capability, CD status, and more. The author notes that cdrom was programmed under Linux 2.4, and has not been tested with newer kernel versions, including the 2.6 branch.

Cdrtools: !!!WARNING!!!! This download probably has serious licence issues. For saver options look at the details tab. cdrtools (formerly cdrecord) creates home-burned CDs with a CDR/CDRW recorder. It works as a burn engine for several applications. It supports CD recorders from many different vendors; all SCSI-3/mmc- and ATAPI/mmc-compliant drives should also work.

Conversations.im: Conversations is a Jabber/XMPP client for Android 5.0+ smartphones that has been optimized to provide a unique mobile experience. A port to iOS is envisaged in the medium-term future. Conversations allows you to easily send images, show if your contact has received and read your message, permit dynamic history and handles multiple devices (especially sync with desktop clients), allow you to create group chats and support one-to-one Audio/Video calls ! And thanks to the XMPP Protocol (that is a push protocol) you battery life is safe. Conversations also does not require a Google Account or specifically Google Cloud Messaging (GCM). Using the XMPP federated protocol, you can freely choose a trustworthy server (your own if you want) for yourself while still chatting with contacts that are using other servers. The communication between Conversations and the XMPP server as well as the communication between the individual servers is TLS encrypted. This way, not only your messages are safe but more importantly it is impossible for an outside attacker to intercept your meta data (with whom you are chatting) without attacking your server first. On top of that, Conversations gives you the choice to enable one of two end-to-end encryption mechanisms. The first one is OMEMO, a state of the art multi-end-to-multi-end encryption method which is very easy to setup and gives you forward secrecy and plausible deniability. For backwards compatibility reasons Conversations also supports OpenPGP.
