It's simple to use, with easy user interface --- play, stop, pause, rew, ff, shuffle, repeat (and nothing else) on one window. It Just Works, "yum install xmms xmms-mp3 xmms-flac" and its ready to go. It is similar to WinAMP, very useful for windows2linux converts. It doesn't try to scan my entire hard disk to build its own database of my music (and piss me off in the 2-hour process), like Amarok. It looks nice (with the "none" skin), unlike Amarok. It doesn't try to build itself into system tray, when I close the window it closes the program, unlike Amarok. It doesn't bother me with a name of the song in the middle of the screen on every song change, unlike Amarok. I never required any utf8 support (ASCII seems sufficient for my needs), and I don't know what is gtk1 widget set... :-) Best, :-) Marko -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
