more files in goodies

[Barry Pollock]

I uploaded 2 files
README-music
music-1.12c.tar.gz
README-music is located in the archive

The archive containes a configure program that loads and extracts and
deletes the unnecessary
files to create the modules
Term::ReadKey which is a standard perl module from  CPAN

Term::GetKey is a module that allows you to controll the terminal for
single character requests for menus etc.
music depends on these modules when you are asked for input.
The purpose is to randomly select `wav', `mp3' or `ogg' files to play with
freeamp
You can change the program that you wish to run with these files that
`music has selected.
There are several parameters that you can use to make different choices
`music -h'
will give you a listing and a limited description of the parameters for
`music'
If you have any problems
Contact me.

The music program allows you to randomly select several `mp3', `ogg' or
`wav' files and play them.
The default is 25 but you can change that with the `--fc=10' option which
would decrease the number of randomly selected files to 10.
A script is created with the random choices with their complete paths and
file names for freeamp to execute.
There are several other options which are listed when
you type `music -h'
or
`music --help'

Hmmm, I thought that Chuck H had created something similar a wile back. What is the difference between the 2 programs if my observation is correct?

My program is called "clips" and relies on mime.types and mailcap
to decide what players to use for what formats. It creates a list
of all the playable files in a specified directory and then plays
them in the way you request. The parameter "all" plays them in
alphabetical order by filename, "any" picks just one of them to
play at random, "mix" plays the list randomly without replacement
(so each selection gets played just once), and without any
parameter it just plays items randomly until the power fails or
the cows come home, whichever happens first!

My program is written in C++ and does not have any keyboard
controls. Everything is specified on the command line. The format
is:

$ clips <directoryname> [parameter]
