NOTES
Some terminals don't like the default escape-sequences from params.h ... if
so, you have to edit them ! Successfully tested terminals are
vt100,
linux,
xterm,
xterm-color.
If you haven't direct access to a freedb server, you may use some
port redirector program ... see freshmeat.
If you have devfs, mcdp will try /dev/cdroms/cdrom0, else /dev/cdrom is tried!
