+abcde is a frontend command-line utility (actually, a shell script)
+that grabs tracks off a CD encodes them to Ogg/Vorbis, MP3, FLAC,
+OGG/Speex, and/or MPP/MP+(Musepack) format, and tags them, all in one
+go.
+
+abcde requires cd-discid, which is also available at SlackBuilds.org.
+If you want to have mp3 encoding capability, you need to install the
+lame package (lame is also available at SlackBuilds.org).
+
+There are many more features that abcde supports that you can add on, such as
+mkcue and encoding in other various formats, see the man page for more info.
+Try running abcde as root (sudo or whatever) if abcde/cd-discid thinks your
+favorite audio cd is a data cd.
