ACK - that's a problem, except... In ONETRACK mode it should only ever
be ripping the whole album. At least in local testing I can't make
abcde do a limited set of tracks in that mode. It's nothing I've ever
tried (or wanted!), so I'm curious to know if/how you've managed it!

  Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there
  must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the
  far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled
  knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer
