DESCRIPTION
autorun automagically recognises all available CDROMs in
your system, mounts them upon insertion and executes a
possible 'autorun' executable on the CD. To allow an ordi
nary user to do this you have to add the options user,exec
in /etc/fstab to the CDROMs you want to use.
You may also use Autorun.kdelnk for KDE. Just place it in
your Autostart folder.
Command strings are parsed and %P% is replaced by the
mountpoint path. %D% is replaced by the device path.
After that the command string will be executed using
/bin/sh -c "command string";
OPTIONS
-a, --autorun=EXEC
Execute EXEC, if the CD changes. This executable
must be located on the CD. I.e. if you specify
"--autorun=myprogram", and your CD is mounted under
/mnt/cdrom, after the CD is changed, autorun will
attempt to run "/mnt/cdrom/myprogram". (default
"/autorun")
-c, --cdplayer=CDPLAYER
Run CDPLAYER, if an audio CD is inserted (default
"/usr/bin/kscd")
-i, --interval=MILLISEC

(default 1000000)
-l, --lock
Lock the mounted media (unmount by hand)
-m, --mountonly

-n, --notify=STRING
Command STRING that will executed if the CD changes
(default "/usr/bin/kfmclient configureDesktop")
Command STRING that will executed if a CD was
inserted and the autorun executable "/autorun" or
the one specified with --autorun was NOT executed.
(default "/usr/bin/kfmclient openURL %P%")
-e, --notify-eject=STRING
Command STRING that will executed if a CD was
ejected (default "")
