DESCRIPTION

13       audtty is a simple application for controlling Audacious from the  com‐
14       mand  line.   It is designed to make common, simple tasks fast and easy
15       to do. It is operated using arrow keys and standard Audacious keys,  to
16       make it easy and intuitive to learn.
17

OPTIONS

19       To negate a short option, use '+' instead of '-' (e.g.  +a).
20       Long-options are negated with no-, (e.g.  --no-read-all).
21
22       The keys for basic control are as follows:
23              +-----------------------+
24              |     <<  >  || o  >>   |
25              +-----------------------+
26                     z  x  c  v  b
27
28       -a, --read-all
29              Read all titles and lengths on startup (EXTREMELY SLOW) (default
30              off).

CONFIGURATION FILES

101       /etc/audtty.conf
102              Global configuration file.
103
104       $HOME/.audtty.conf
105              Local configuration file, specific for each user. Can be used to
106              override the global options.
107
108       The syntax of the configuration files  are  long  options  without  the
109       '--', one on each line.
110
111       Example:
112              numbers
113              title
114              length no-read-all
115

BUGS

117       The  xmms  remote controlling library provides no good way of detecting
118       changes in the playlist, and therefore audtty might need to be told  to
119       reload  the  playlist  if songs are moved. Do so by pressing L.  If the
120       length of the playlist changes, audtty will  assume  the  playlist  has
121       changed and reload the entire playlist to make sure it is correct.
122
123       Probably lots more.
