The music program allows you to randomly select several `mp3', `ogg' or `wav' files and play them. The default is 25 but you can change that with the `--fc=10' option which would decrease the number of randomly selected files to 10. A script is created with the random choices with their complete paths and file names for freeamp to execute. There are several other options which are listed when you type `music -h' or `music --help' Barry On Thu, 11 Apr 2002, Rich Caloggero wrote: > What does this "Music" program do? > > Rich > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Barry Pollock" <barryp at hurontel.on.ca> > To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> > Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 9:44 AM > Subject: more files in goodies > > > > I uploaded 2 files > > README-music > > music-1.12c.tar.gz > > README-music is located in the archive > > > > The archive containes a configure program that loads and extracts and > > deletes the unnecessary > > files to create the modules > > Term::ReadKey which is a standard perl module from CPAN > > > > Term::GetKey is a module that allows you to controll the terminal for > > single character requests for menus etc. > > music depends on these modules when you are asked for input. > > The purpose is to randomly select `wav', `mp3' or `ogg' files to play with > > freeamp > > You can change the program that you wish to run with these files that > > `music has selected. > > There are several parameters that you can use to make different choices > > `music -h' > > will give you a listing and a limited description of the parameters for > > `music' > > If you have any problems > > Contact me. > > barryp at hurontel.on.ca > > > > > > > > > >
