Description
Prior to #39, ripping the entire disc to a single file could be achieved by specifying track 0 as the start point, e.g.
cd-paranoia -vz 0- outfile.wav
(and adding an offset with -O if necessary)
With the change in that PR, 0 is no longer a valid placeholder for 'rip from the beginning of the disc', and requires knowing whether the disc has a track 0 first before attempting it. Not a huge problem, but it does expose a weakness in using the span arguments to accomplish the task. Having a standalone option to just rip all sectors would be preferable to needing to specify span at all.
Yes, I do acknowledge that this can also be done by using cdrdao, which says it uses paranoia (I'm presuming an internally vendored copy, possibly of the Xiph branch?), but it doesn't have the more informative sector integrity progress output provided by cd-paranoia (it also requires more steps to get working audio from the .bin file afterward).
