DESCRIPTION

15       XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://www.xmms.org) music player.  It
16       features  a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!)
17       user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common  audio  formats
18       are  supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media
19       library to organise your music.
20
21       xmms2-launcher starts xmms2d(1) in the background. The main feature  is
22       that it does not exit until the IPC system of XMMS2 is available, mean‐
23       ing that as soon as the xmms2-launcher process has exited  successfully
24       xmms2d(1) is ready to accept commands.
25
26       xmms2-launcher includes command line options to change the way in which
27       the daemon is invoked.
28
29              These options are currently recognised:
30
31       -l logfile / --logfile=logfile
32              Write log file to logfile instead of the default log file  loca‐
33              tion
34
35       - P pidfile / --pidfile=pidfile
36              Write the pid of xmms2d to the file specified by pidfile
37
38       -? / --help
39              Show help options
40

FILES

42       $XDG_CACHE_HOME/xmms2/xmms2d.log
43              The  default  location  for  a  file  where  the  log  output of
44              xmms2d(1) is redirected. Usually ~/.cache/xmms2/xmms2d.log.
