hello and a question

Hello there! Have used XFCE some, but prefer command line. Question is: Can xfburn be used on a headless machine without a gui. Trying to burn iso.
Thanks!

Hello and welcome, sorry for the late reply!

I think that although xfburn has a command line interface, it is used only to invoke the GUI (that's from reading the man page, I don't have it installed).

You'd be better served, in my opinion, by using native CLI apps, like bashburn, burn or cdw. They're in most default repos.

Huh. Of those three, only cdw is in the default Debian 10 repos.

Ah, my mistake, I stand corrected.
