Default Gapless Album

Hi guys,
I'm looking at putting an album together and I want it to be gapless but still have track markers so it can be skipped on a CD player or iPod or whatever.
Like a Pink Floyd album. My question is is can this be done in PT or do I need some other software? If so could anyone recommend such a program?
Thanks

No, PT doesn't do this.

Start here.

If you edit your tracks to a complete CD frame, then you can burn them in any software with 0 gap and they will flow together as you intend.

Wow thanks Jimmy. So this works without any silent gaps or any audible clicks or pops what so ever?

You can actually even do this in Itunes. Or most standard mastering programs.
