_\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. Now at one time i thought this bloke was an alright bloke now however he has become a nobody.
Heh. Being a nobody would give me *lots* of free time. Yay !
Like it or not there is simply NO realistic replacement for XMMS none of the players i have installed/tried can even hold a candle to XMMS most of the are so bloated with unneeded rubbish and wet assed ways of doing things they don't even glimmer on the horizon ..
Well I guess you should try vim to edit playlists + mpg123
There certainly is NO suitable KDE replacement nor that other infestation gnome has nothing and the rest don't in all honesty count for much in the scheme of things
Still doesn't change the fact that XMMS is a dead project.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=40823
xmms 1.2.6 January 7, 2002
It still uses glib/gtk 1.x (must be pretty much the last package that
uses it on the whole distro).
http://cvs.xmms.org/cvsweb.cgi/xmms/
Last time most files have been touched is 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, ...
That's hardly anything like actively maintained, and hence: "xmms is
dead, get over it"
I wonder how sort of insulting me is going to change anything about that
fact.
There are forks, branches, new developments, whatever, but the xmms
project itself is a dead horse.
cheers
