mcplay 0.3i

mcplay is not just another fontend for mpg123. It is also just another frontend for many other players (ogg123, sox, drvmidi). It is able to adjust the soundmixers volume and it is able to read and write playlist files (*.m3u). And it can be controlled via lirc. The word mcplay stands for "my cool player" or "my cloned player" since it is a C-clone of the excellent program cplay which is written in python. For now mcplay is in beta stage as it lacks a comfortable installation routine. And there might be some Bugs, too. Uncompress the tar-gz file (e.g. with `tar xvzf myfile.tar.gz). Change to the newly created subdirectory and edit the Makefile e.g. by the command vi Makefile The lines you should change are marked with comments in the Makefile. If you have finished type make and mcplay should compile. If you like a sytemwide installation you should become root: su If you want to enable mcplays -a option (get a high priority) for all users make it suid root: chown root mcplay chmod +s mcplay Now you can install the program system-wide: make install.
