It can load the management information of existing ISO images, and it writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects. This is the standalone version which incorporates the libraries of libburnia-project.org and thus depends only on Linux 2.4 (or later), libc, and libpthread. No separate mkisofs and no CD/DVD burn program are needed.
