Look in /usr/doc/cdrecord-1.9 for some of the documention.  man cdrecord
will also give you information on how to run it.  Cdrecord is a command
utility.  If you want to burn CD's from X, you might want to try
xcdroast.  You will also find the CD-Writing-HOWTO helpfull.  It should
be in /usr/doc/HOWTO.
