nncmpp
nncmpp is yet another MPD client. It is in effect a simplified TUI version of Sonata. I had already written a lot of the required code before, so I had the perfect opportunity to get rid of the unmaintained Python application and make the first TUI client that doesn’t feel awkward to use.
If it’s not obvious enough, the name is a pun on all those ridiculous client names, and should be pronounced as "nincompoop".
Features
Most things are there. Enough for me to use it exclusively. Note that since I only use the filesystem browsing mode, that’s also the only thing I care to implement for the time being.
Packages
Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get a package with the latest development version from Archlinux’s AUR.
Documentation
See the man page for information about usage. The rest of this README will concern itself with externalities.
Building
Build dependencies: CMake, pkg-config, asciidoctor, liberty (included),
termo (included)
Runtime dependencies: ncursesw, libunistring, cURL, fftw3 (optional)
$ git clone --recursive https://git.janouch.name/p/nncmpp.git $ mkdir nncmpp/build $ cd nncmpp/build $ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug $ make
To install the application, you can do either the usual:
# make install
Or you can try telling CMake to make a package for you. For Debian it is:
$ cpack -G DEB # dpkg -i nncmpp-*.deb
Terminal caveats
This application aspires to be as close to a GUI as possible. It expects you to use the mouse (though it’s not required). Terminals are, however, somewhat tricky to get consistent results on, so be aware of the following:
-
use a UTF-8 locale to get finer resolution progress bars and scrollbars
-
Xterm needs
XTerm*metaSendsEscape: true
for the default bindings to work -
urxvt’s 'vtwheel' plugin sabotages scrolling
