XMMS2-FIND-AVAHI(1)					      General Commands Manual					       XMMS2-FIND-AVAHI(1)

NAME
xmms2-find-avahi - finding running XMMS2 instances via Avahi SYNOPSIS
xmms2-find-avahi DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the xmms2-find-avahi command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the orig- inal program does not have a manual page. XMMS2 is a redesign of the XMMS (http://www.xmms.org) music player. It features a client-server model, allowing multiple (even simultane- ous!) user interfaces, both textual and graphical. All common audio formats are supported using plugins. On top of this, there is a flexi- ble media library to organize your music. xmms2-find-avahi lists all XMMS2 instances that are running on the network and can be accessed via Avahi. XMMS2 can be announced by xmms2-mdns-avahi. OPTIONS
This program does not offer any options. SEE ALSO
xmms2(1), xmms2-mdns-avahi(1), http://xmms2.xmms.org. AUTHORS
xmms2-find-avahi was written by the XMMS2 Team. This manual page was written by Benjamin Drung <bdrung@ubuntu.com>, for the Debian project (and may be used by others). 2009-07-05 XMMS2-FIND-AVAHI(1)
