DESCRIPTION

13       XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://legacy.xmms2.org) music player.
14       It features a client-server model, allowing multiple  (even  simultane‐
15       ous!)  user  interfaces,  both  textual and graphical. All common audio
16       formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a  flexi‐
17       ble media library to organise your music.
18
19       xmms2-launcher  starts xmms2d(1) in the background. The main feature is
20       that it does not exit until the IPC system of XMMS2 is available, mean‐
21       ing  that as soon as the xmms2-launcher process has exited successfully
22       xmms2d(1) is ready to accept commands.
