DESCRIPTION

       unieject is a simple commandline tool that allows to eject, close the
       tray, set the speed, lock and unlock a CD-Rom drive. The main
       difference from the usual eject tool you find in many distributions is
       that it uses libcdio and its then portable on non-Linux operating
       system, as far as libcdio is ported, too.
ACTIONS

       The default action is, of course, to eject the CD in the drive, but
       there are a few extra actions that are present, mainly for
       compatibility with classic eject command.

       --trayclose, -t
           Close the tray of the drive instead of ejecting the CD in it.

       --traytoggle, -T
           If the tray is closed, eject, if it's open, close the tray. This
           function relies on the drive being able to provide the tray
           information.

       --speed speed, -x speed
           Set the maximum speed for the CD-Rom drive, if applicable.

       --lock, -l, --unlock, -L
           Allows to lock or unlock the tray of the CD-Rom drive to disable
           and then re-enable the manual eject by button.
COMMON OPTIONS

       --noop, -n
           Don't actually do anything, just print what it would have been done
           to execute the required command.

       --verbose, -V
           Show more information while executing the command (increase
           verbosity).

       --quiet, -Q
           Hides error while executing the command (decrease verbosity).

       --ignore-caps
           Ignore the capabilities stated by the device to eject, and try to
           run the command anyway, useful if a device is known not to report
           them correctly. On FreeBSD systems this is forced while using ioctl
           access.

       --no-ignore-caps
           Don't ignore the capabilities stated by the device (this is the
           default behavior, this option is used to override unieject.conf(5)
           file).

       --accessmode mode
           Change the default access mode for the command. This is used to
           override the default access mode imposed by libcdio in case it
           doesn't work correctly. Leave the default if you don't know how to
           change this.

       --debugcdio level
           Sets the debug level for libcdio information messages.  0 means the
           most debug output is generated.
EJECTION OPTIONS

       --no-unmount, -m
           Don't unmount the device if it's mounted (eject will fail if the
           device is mounted).

       --unmount, -u
           Unmount the device if it's mounted (this is the default behavior,
           this option is used to override unieject.conf(5) file).

       --force, -f
           Force unmounting of the device if it's mounted, this works only if
           the operating system supports it.

       --no-force
           Don't force unmounting of device (this is the default behavior,
           this option is used to override unieject.conf(5) file).

       --umount-wrapper wrapper, -W wrapper
           Use the given wrapper to unmount the device instead of library's
           functions. The device name will be passed right after the wrapper.
ENVIRONMENT

       The following environment variables changes the behavior of unieject.

       EJECT
           Used for compatibility with FreeBSD's eject command; when it's set
           the default device to eject is take from there instead of libcdio
           defaults.
