QueryXMMS (qxmms) is a small command line application that queries XMMS about what it is currently doing. QueryXMMS is useful for writing scripts that react to the status of XMMS.
Requirements:
XMMS
Quick Start:
Unpackage the qxmms-x.x.tar.bz2. If you downloaded the pre-compiled binary then there you go, run it right where you unpackaged it. You could move or link it to /usr/bin/ or ~/bin or wherever you have setup to hold binaries so you can execute them from any directory with ease.
If you want to compile it, then just type "make" and it should compile it. Then follow the above paragraph.
In the following examples I am going to assume you have copied the qxmms binary to /usr/bin.
Also, all commands are typed at a shell, be it an xterm,konsole,Eterm... whatever. Do not type the quoting marks when typing these commands.
Typing `qxmms`
Returns `Sugar Ray - When It's Over`
