It is written +to support a variety of audio subsystems and file formats, including playlists. + +Herrie has a split-screen user interface, with a playlist at the top of the +screen and a file browser at the bottom. Herrie supports XMMS shortcuts for +playback control and can play in XMMS mode or "party" mode (which acts as a +song queue). Herrie also has some more exotic features, including support for +AudioScrobbler and the ability to chroot() itself into a directory. + +The default options for this Slackbuild are set for no scrobbler, modplugin, wave, +or XSPF support. ALSA is the chosen sound output. This makes it so the program +can be built with the least amount of dependencies (with these options all of them +should be included in Slackware 12.1). See the README in the herrie source for +the dependencies needed if you enable other options. + +This SlackBuild also includes some experimental patches to add functionality to +herrie. These include adding more signals and remote control, file filtering, and +autoquit upon playlist completion. + +These patches are not used by default in this slackBuild, so you either need to +set their corresponding option in the build script or run the script with the +respective variable set. For example, this would choose to use all three patches: + AUTOQUIT=YES SIGNALS=YES FILTER=YES herrie.SlackBuild + +Please see README.SBo for usage and configuration help for this and other options. -- cgit v1.2.3
