xmms-curses(1)		    Ncurses remote for XMMS		xmms-curses(1)

NAME
       xmms-curses  -  Control	XMMS  from  the	 command  line with a friendly
       ncurses interface

SYNOPSIS
       xmms-curses [<-|+>ntlaVh] [ options ]

DESCRIPTION
       xmms-curses is a simple application for controlling XMMS from the  com‐
       mand  line.   It is designed to make common, simple tasks fast and easy
       to do. It is operated using arrow keys and standard XMMS keys, to  make
       it easy and intuitive to learn.

OPTIONS
       To negate a short option, use '+' instead of '-' (e.g.  +a).
       Long-options are negated with no-, (e.g.	 --no-read-all).

       -n, --numbers
	      Show numbers in playlist (default on)

       -t, --title
	      Read the title from ID3/ogg-tags (SLOW) (default on)

       -l, --length
	      Show length of track in playlist (SLOW) (default on)

       -a, --read-all
	      Read all titles and lengths on startup (EXTREMELY SLOW) (default
	      off)

       -V, --version
	      Display version information

       -h, --help
	      Print help message

       Tip: Things going slow? Try xmms-curses -ntl

KEYS
       Arrow right/left
	      Skip forward/backward 5 seconds

       Arrow up/down
	      Move up/down in the playlist or search results

       Page up/down
	      Scroll up/down one page in the playlist or search results

       Enter  Select and play file

       x      Play

       c      Pause

       v      Stop

       z      Jump to previuos song

       b      Jump to next song

       0 or + Increase volume

       9 or - Decrease volume

       j      Search for file to jump to

       L      Reload playlist

       q      Exit from application

       Esc    Exit from application, or, if in jump dialog, go to main view

FILES
       /etc/xmms-curses.conf
	      Global configuration file.

       $HOME/.xmms-curses
	      Local configuration file, specific for each user. Can be used to
	      override the global options.

       The  syntax  of	the  configuration  files are long options without the
       '--', one on each line.

       Example:
	      numbers
	      title
	      length no-read-all

BUGS
       The xmms remote controlling library provides no good way	 of  detecting
       changes	in  the	 playlist,  and therefore xmms-curses might need to be
       told to reload the playlist if songs are moved. Do so  by  pressing  L.
       If  the	length	of  the	 playlist changes, xmms-curses will assume the
       playlist has changed and reload the entire playlist to make sure it  is
       correct.

       Probably lots more.
