How can I read CD-Text information from CDs

Question

What applications are available for GNU/Linux that allow read-out of CD-Text data from CDs?

Command-line programs would be preferred.

Solution

Libcdio contains a collection of command-line which are CD-Text aware. Specifically, you can get CD information using the cd-info program.

For more information on using particular libcdio library functions, have a look at the online documentation.
