  NAME
      dr_unsort - unsort the current mpd playlist

  SYNOPSIS
      dr_unsort

  DESCRIPTION
      dr_unsort invokes unsort(1) on the current audio playlist as used by mpd.  Use it if you'd like some variation in your music.

  EXAMPLE
      If The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/03-Glass_Onion.ogg is the current playing track and your current playlist looks like

	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/01 Brainfeeder.mp3
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/01-Back_in_the_U.S.S.R..ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/02-Dear_Prudence.ogg
      > The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/03-Glass_Onion.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/04-Ob-La-Di,_Ob-La-Da.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/05-Wild_Honey_Pie.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/06-The_Continuing_Story_of_Bungalow_Bill.ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/07-While_My_Guitar_Gently_Weeps.ogg
	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/02 Breathe . Something_Stellar STar.mp3
	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/03 Beginners Falafel.mp3

	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/06 Comet Course.mp3
	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/07 Orbit 405.mp3
	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/08 Golden Diva.mp3

      invoking dr_unsort will yield something like e.g.

	Flying_Lotus/Los_Angeles/01 Brainfeeder.mp3
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/01-Back_in_the_U.S.S.R..ogg
	The_Beatles/The_White_Album_I/02-Dear_Prudence.ogg

  WARNING
      Due to limitations in the mpc/mpd protocol, dr_unsort needs filesystem level write access to mpd's playlist directory.

  ENVIRONMENT
      dr_unsort honors strings DR_PLAYLISTS (mpd's playlist directory) and DR_UNSORT (unsort pathname).

  SEE ALSO
      unsort(1), available from http://packages.debian.org/unsort.
