history

Project history and usage

cuetools is a small Unix-style audio metadata toolkit for working with cue sheets and cdrdao TOC files.

Project history

The upstream repository describes cuetools as cue and toc file parsers and utilities, with copyright years spanning 2004 through 2013 for Svend Sorensen. Its README presents the project as a focused set of command-line programs rather than a large audio application.

Adoption history

The package remains useful to distribution maintainers because it exposes simple programs for a durable niche: converting, printing, tagging, and extracting breakpoints from CUE and TOC metadata. The supplied package-manager facts show it packaged across Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Arch, Nix, MacPorts, Scoop, Winget, and related ecosystems.

How it is used

Typical usage is in audio-ripping and archival workflows where cue sheets describe track layout. The upstream tools include cueconvert for CUE/TOC conversion, cuebreakpoints for extracting split points, cueprint for disc and track metadata, and cuetag.sh for applying tags.

Why package nerds care

cuetools is package-nerd interesting because it preserves a narrow but important command-line layer around CUE sheets, a format that often appears in lossless CD images and music archives. It is small, GPL-licensed C tooling with man-page-style documentation, making it easy for Unix package managers to ship without desktop dependencies.

Timeline

  • 2004: Copyright period begins in upstream README.
  • 2013: Later upstream copyright year shown in README.
  • 2026: Still distributed by multiple package managers according to source_facts.package-manager.

Related projects

  • cdrdao TOC files, CUE sheet tooling, and audio taggers are the closest adjacent tools in normal packaging contexts.
