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

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
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.
