NAME

       audtty - Control Audacious from the command line with a friendly ncurses interface

SYNOPSIS

       audtty [<-|+>ahlntV] [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

       audtty  is a simple application for controlling Audacious from the command line.  It is designed to make common, simple tasks fast and easy
       to do. It is operated using arrow keys and standard Audacious keys, to make it easy and intuitive to learn.

OPTIONS

       To negate a short option, use '+' instead of '-' (e.g.  +a).
       Long-options are negated with no-, (e.g.  --no-read-all).

       The keys for basic control are as follows:
	      +-----------------------+
	      |     <<	>  || o  >>   |
	      +-----------------------+
		     z	x  c  v  b

       -a, --read-all
	      Read all titles and lengths on startup (EXTREMELY SLOW) (default off).

       -h, --help
	      Print help message.

       -l, --length
	      Show length of track in playlist (SLOW) (default on).

       -n, --numbers
	      Show numbers in playlist (default on).

       -t, --title
	      Read the title from ID3/ogg-tags (SLOW) (default on).

       -V, --version
	      Display version information.

       Tip: Things going slow? Try audtty -ntl

CONFIGURATION FILES

       /etc/audtty.conf
	      Global configuration file.

       $HOME/.audtty.conf
	      Local configuration file, specific for each user. Can be used to override the global options.

       The syntax of the configuration files are long options without the '--', one on each line.

       Example:
	      numbers
	      title
	      length no-read-all

BUGS

       The xmms remote controlling library provides no good way of detecting changes in the playlist, and therefore audtty might need to  be  told
       to reload the playlist if songs are moved. Do so by pressing L.	If the length of the playlist changes, audtty will assume the playlist has
       changed and reload the entire playlist to make sure it is correct.

       Probably lots more.
