Description : command-line based shuffle music player that remembers songs between sessions
Randomplay allows you to play your music collection (or execute any arbitrary
commands on any arbitrary filetypes) in random order with a memory of songs
played preserved across sessions, so you don't "lose your place" if you stop
and resume later. It also has many features to make command-line music playing more
convenient, including recursive regexp searching for tracks and the ability to
specify a certain number of tracks, bytes, or minutes to play. Randomplay will
also generate a list of music files to be loaded onto a portable music player
device. It also includes a 'random weighting' feature, so songs you prefer are
more likely to come up in the random shuffle according to your preferences.
.
Randomplay is a convenient tool for the user who does everything in an xterm
window or console and finds herself constantly devising complex find/grep/sed
command lines to play just the right set of songs.
