XMMS2-LAUNCHER(1)					      General Commands Manual						 XMMS2-LAUNCHER(1)

NAME

       xmms2-launcher - XMMS2 daemon launcher

SYNOPSIS

       xmms2-launcher [-l file] [-P file] [-v] [--] [XMMS2D_OPTION] ...
       xmms2-launcher -h

DESCRIPTION

       XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://legacy.xmms2.org) music player. It features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simulta-
       neous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flex-
       ible 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.
