xmms2-launcher - XMMS2 daemon launcher
Contents
Description
XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://legacy.xmms2.org) music player. It features a client-server
model, allowing multiple (even simultaneous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common
audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexible media library to organise
your music.
xmms2-launcher starts xmms2d(1) in the background. The main feature is that it does not exit until the
IPC system of XMMS2 is available, meaning that as soon as the xmms2-launcher process has exited
successfully xmms2d(1) is ready to accept commands.
Environment
