## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung
bchunk, short for binchunker, converts BIN/CUE or RAW/CUE CD images into ISO data tracks and CDR or WAV audio tracks.
### Projektgeschichte
Heikki Hannikainen released bchunk 1.0.0 on 1998-10-11. The README and homepage describe it as a Unix/C rewrite of Bob Marietta's BinChunker Pascal/Delphi implementation.
The project grew through compatibility patches for MODE2/2352, PlayStation-style tracks, WAV output, raw extraction, and portability across older Unix systems. Development later moved around the official GitHub repository linked from the homepage.
### Adoptionsgeschichte
bchunk spread because BIN/CUE images were common from non-Unix CD-writing software while many Unix CD tools wanted ISO, CDR, or WAV tracks. The upstream page explicitly notes Debian packaging and BSD ports, and the supplied package-manager facts show broad packaging across Homebrew and Linux distributions.
A 2017 security update fixed several malformed-CUE handling issues and CVEs, giving old distro packages a clear reason to converge on 1.2.2.
### Wie es verwendet wird
The normal command form is bchunk , with switches for verbose output, PSX handling, raw MODE2/2352 extraction, WAV audio output, and sample byte swapping.
Its output ISO tracks can be mounted or burned, while CDR/WAV tracks can be handled by audio or CD-writing tools.
### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren
bchunk is a classic preservation-and-interoperability package: tiny, old, and very useful exactly when an archive arrives in a format your Unix tools do not want.
Its package-manager persistence says a lot about long-tail media tooling. Optical-disc images faded from everyday use, but package collections keep the converter one install away for archival, retro-computing, and recovery work.
### Zeitleiste
- 1998: 1.0.0 initial release.
- 2001: 1.1.0 added MODE2/2352, PSX-oriented handling, WAV output, a man page, and make install.
- 2004: 1.2.0 added raw MODE2/2352 extraction.
- 2017: 1.2.2 security update fixed malformed-CUE CVEs and track-size calculation.
### Related projects
- Bob Marietta's original BinChunker is the upstream ancestor.
- FireBurner is mentioned by the README as the later non-Unix tool that obsoleted the original BinChunker.
- cdrecord, sox, and mount workflows consume the ISO, CDR, and WAV outputs.
