subject: CD-ROM control programming

I'm interested in reading the raw sectors off CD-ROMs. I know that certain
CD-ROM readers are capable of this and can be controlled using an ASPI
command called something like "READ_RAW".

I looked up information about ASPI, and the advice was that you are better
off talking to the OS/2 .ADD rather than ASPI if you are only programming
for OS/2.

So my question is, how can I find out information about reading raw sectors
from a CD-ROM by talking to the .ADD. Where should I be looking?


All hints appreciated!
